I'm most appreciative. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 01/24/2015 7:17 pm I've seen nickel tone every color of the rainbow. I'm not sure if this coin is original or not. Hard to tell but my guess would be cleaned/retoned. I'm at AU55 details. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 01/24/2015 9:05 pm Don't know what happened with this coin but tend to like nickels that are toned. A lot of people prefer them white though so it works out when I buy them in lots and sell some off. Report this Post to the Staff
