I love the toning....even though I don't exactly know what coin collectors consider as "good toning":-).

I also went to VAMWorld for this coin...not quite there on the language. I'll be digging in to start understanding it better.

Here are the full images. I understand it is not that typical to have toning on both sides of coin? Is this true?

Thanks for taking the time to provide the pics. Your coin has beautiful rainbow toning! IMO.... When a coin looks like a work of art, as if it were painted on, which yours absolutely does, is definitely advantageous for those who appreciate toning. I am uncertain of the statistics but yes, for both sides to be toned to the extent yours is, is atypical.

Does the round "O" qualify it as a VAM?. Or just a variation?
