HippieOutcast Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 01/07/2013 5:45 pm The personal attacks are a nice touch. I made a general comment on a coin that at that time was not claimed to be owned by anyone on this site. My comment is what it is, a comment on an ugly coin, nothing more, nothing less. If you take some odd, miss-placed offense to that, I apologize for my general statement of free speech. All that aside however, it is still a fairly ugly coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Bm0ney Pillar of the Community Canada 1005 Posts	Posted 01/07/2013 6:38 pm I just had your listing come up on the top banner. Looks like the bidding is going well. Regardless of how it became toned it is a nice proof like coin for people who like toning as the title says. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10463 Posts	Posted 01/07/2013 8:34 pm The main issue I have with that 1959 dollar is that I don't see underlying lustre, although most 1959 business strikes I have seen are almost of a matte finish. Maybe it is the photography and lighting... you can get some gorgeous 1959 toned dollars in the old proof-like cardboard holders, with underlying mirror lustre...
