okie-colin Pillar of the Community United States 1083 Posts	Posted 01/29/2007 1:37 pm Needed another commem for my 7070. I got this one at an XF price, but I have no idea how to grade it. The toning is not over done and seems graduated, but I would like opinions on that as well. I bought the coin on ebay and it is raw. Here are the pictures used in the listing.

I would have thought if anyone were trying to artificially tone a coin that they would do it with more color than this one. If it is artificial, is there a way to remove it withour harming the coin? Would an acetone dip do it? Report this Post to the Staff
Tbar Valued Member United States 191 Posts	Posted 01/29/2007 7:31 pm I am not totaly sure on that Okie.....just my best guess, I am far from an authority. Either way, if you like the way the coin looks I would leave it as is...and pop it in your album. Report this Post to the Staff
