T-BOP, it looks like you and I are on opposite sides of the same river.   <---I posted a pic of you and me. (I'm on the right) I'm one of those you detests toned coins, especially those home-made ones. Those colors and swirls ARE nice to look at, but not on coins. Sorry.

Nice, manufactured toners. Gotta love copper.

@attic, T was being sarcastic.
I have 1 that looks ever so slightly similar in color, not to that degree. It has about 1/4 of the obverse that sky blue color. I'd say it was AT if I didn't break it out of an OBW roll from an OBW Box that was sealed since '61.

I guess it's just art, isn't it.

I think that it is hilarious that for some of his inventory, the listing has the word beautiful in quotes. Almost like this seller is also being sarcastic.

I know it's AT, but I still think some of them look nice. As Coinfrog said, it could be considered a form of art.  The steelie is interesting: 133495554158

Artificial toning for sure. IMHO, the shipping cost of $4 is more than the coin is worth. John1

Hmm, if that is so, then I'll show a better pic of him and me (I'm on the left this time) --->   . Also, I'll take back my 'sorry' from my earlier post too.

LOL T-bop. Well played.
And I'm surprised as well that any sold for big $, but maybe the real test is if they re-sold for big $.
