Yeah, it's got eye appeal...but paying 8 to 10 times more than it's value doesn't make sense (or "cents"!). What does the reverse look like? Same toning? Is it a Full Steps coin?

Yeah, it's got eye appeal...but paying 8 to 10 times more than it's value doesn't make sense (or "cents"!). Toned coins has become just one more fad lately where some toned coins are going for many times their actual value. There are even Toned Coin web sites that specialize in toned coins, how to make them, how to not make them, what causes them and just about anything else dealing with them. Some time ago a toned coin at a coin show was dismissed as contaminated. Today that same coin is now a precious item. That $160 for that coin is actually a great investment if this toned coin fad continues. And as to Plastic Glues, look into them. Many are advertised as fume free or non toxic fumes or safe for all inviroments. They are being made that way due to what was mentioned about kids usingthem for the fumes. Here is something scarry. If you go to Google and type in Toned Coins you will get 3,280,000 results. Edited by just carl 08/20/2008 7:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Let's get a bunch of 21st century dated LHCs together and soak them in Brake Kleen for a day or two, then try and pass them off as unusual and rare! Report this Post to the Staff

uncommoncents Valued Member United States 76 Posts	Posted 08/21/2008 4:00 pm I found a rainbow toned 1955s penny in a roll this week. I thought the toning would decrease the value not increase it. How can I find out how much it would be worth? Report this Post to the Staff

Sounds a little funny but you just have to go to some coin shows. So many, many coins that I would never want are now expensive. At one coin show there is a dealer that has primarily error coins or so he says. Coins with a slight double line on the rim, slightly raised rims on Roosevelt dimes, Off centers that really need a good magnifyer to detect and a real lot of toned coins. I've seen dealers selling counterfeit coins for more than the real ones and are stated as such. I forsee toned coins labled as artificially toned selling for more than real ones soon.
