ElmerFusterpuck Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 9:59 pm I bought these raw a few years ago, a nice bright red on the obverse and weird glowing greenish rims on the reverse with a glowing ember center. I don't think they are AT (paid $2 for both anyway), it seems most likely from an album or a wooden surface. What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

Voshus007 Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 10:30 pm Wow those are very odd. I wouldn't think that someone would be able to AT only one side of a coin but I'm not sure. Real toning or not they are pretty dang awesome! Report this Post to the Staff
Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 01/20/2013 10:38 pm I know some of my coins I had stored for years in Whitman folders looked like this - but minus the TRON Disk rim. The OBVs were still great and the REVs had all lost their luster. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

mds308 Pillar of the Community United States 1721 Posts	Posted 01/21/2013 07:26 am I'd try to find out how they were originally stored then reverse it so you can tone the obverse too. Neat look. I like the term 'Tron Disk.'. Very clever. Report this Post to the Staff
