duncanbishop24 Pillar of the Community United States 898 Posts	Posted 07/20/2014 11:07 pm Lol, would anyone even want a coin like that? I don't mind toning, but that kind looks odd on a copper, and definitely makes it look weird. Report this Post to the Staff

I can practically learn everything about coins that there is to know because it's all available to be seen first. Report this Post to the Staff

Not too positive how copper gets this look, but an old trick to get a similar look on silver coins is to bake them in a potato.
