I don't think I've posted this here. It's difficult for me to capture but, the entire coin is lustery gunmetal black except for the rainbow on the obverse. This is one I recently got from my mother and it was wrapped in a paper towel with two other Kennedys for who knows how long. It looks outstanding to me in-hand.

Thanks for the comments! I have a details (wiped) ASE I want to try something with and Cascade's recent post inspired me. After getting this Kennedy, I may use a paper towel in some way.

Maybe it will end up here one of these days!

Here's a few I just pulled out of storage.. Long and short I stored them in an environment that I knew may tone the coins but I never thought I'd get these kinda results. Some are quite pleasing.

Here's my other toned '38-D buffalo. I Didn't get more pictures of it before it went to PCGS, but it's getting a TrueView, so I'll post that as well when I get the grade.

Very nice AgCoinAu! The first is my favourite.

Another worthy coin Canadian-Banknotes! I love toners.
