Wizzy1 Valued Member United States 430 Posts	Posted 05/22/2015 9:18 pm Is this nice toning or a failed attempt at "quick toning". Will this make it into a non details slab? Grade listed at EF+. Report this Post to the Staff

zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 05/22/2015 10:29 pm I saw this coin on ebay earlier today, I don't like the look of toning, seems like rapid artificial toning on top of a cleaned coin to hide the cleaning. I think it will NOT slab problem free. Report this Post to the Staff
