I noticed some TONERs on this topic. The ones I see on here are not NATURAL TONERS They ARTISTICALLY INHANSED. I have uploaded some of my Natural toning coins Sorry but my toners and most others here are 100% original NT... yours are too but yours are the funky pastel ASE toners from pci slabs. Those do have a following but personally I don't like them. It's like they're trying to be eye poppers but they just can't do it lol. Still nice for those that like them though  Edited by Cascade

The only AT coin in this thread was ID's as such...
The PCI collection is suspect just because they all look the same....

Fox, it's the old pci inserts that toned them in those pastel colors. This is a somewhat unknown piece of ASE toner history and they have a following that's growing. Old pci ASE slabs with the pastel tones go for around $200 +/- in today's market depending on eye appeal. I just peronally don't like them as they're pastel colors are too muted for my tastes |

 I did not know that...I wouldn't buy a PCI slabbed coin at below market but everyone has their thing I guess I still remember buying a PCI MS70 ASE WAY back for a VERY reasonable price, removed it from the slab and submitted to NGC,,, Came back a MS68 |

It's ironic that a slabbed coin would tone. I think. Ironic in that people paid "experts" to grade and slab coins, when the coins ultimately were toned by the inserts inserted by said experts. And now those are worth *more*?! Sounds like the very definition of a manufactured market to me and makes me  on the whole slabbing thing even more. But that's just me and I realize the tech has come a long way. As I always say, collect what makes you happy. I certainly do! |
