Metzger22 Valued Member United States 127 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 7:20 pm I really wish the colors of the Walking Liberty reverse showed in the picture. It's beautiful in hand. The obverse has very little to no toning. I cherry picked this one out of the junk silver bin at my LCS. I assume this is one of those that sat in a drawer untouched for a long time and only toned on one side. Edited by Metzger22 05/18/2015 7:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 05/18/2015 8:22 pm Tone is tough to capture in photos. I'm still struggling with it myself. My avatar is a perfect example of how bad I can be. It is much nicer in hand. Nice run of toners BTW! Edited by dave700x 05/18/2015 8:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Hats off to those who have managed to show their beautiful toning.

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 05/19/2015 09:44 am It can be very difficult and frustrating to photograph color well for sale but it's relatively easy to be good enough for ccf. But what I have found from my experimenting is that I can now judge the progression and strength of color of a toned coin from a bad pic almost by instinct fairly well. That said if I am planning to sell a toner of significant value I'd want a professional pic like from truview, John at vss, or blucc. To both increase the sales price and as a bonus to the buyer Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 05/23/2015 9:01 pm I wonder why proof franklins tend to rim tone with that speckled black pattern. Seems to be the standard for them Report this Post to the Staff
