Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 02/16/2011 1:16 pm The Fact that there exists artificial toning solutions on the market, or that the seller is encouraging buyers to use it on a 1916D mercury. http://cgi.ebay.com/Coin-Toner-Use-...em45f8c1b334 Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 02/16/2011 1:33 pm I do not think it is encouragement to use it on 1916D Mercs as much as it is key word spamming which is not allowed by ebay. Everyone searching for a 1916D Mercury will get this auction in the search list even though it has nothing to do with Mercs. Report this Post to the Staff

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 02/16/2011 11:00 pm KWS or toning? Note the listing says Quote: Examples of what Tone-A-Coin could do! , not even that it did cause this toning. Ethics? I put a new, white 1999 ASE on the counter. A couple months later, I had a beautiful coin toned on one side. Was the toning natural? It is if you live across the street from a glass factory that uses who-knows-what chemicals! Is it any LESS natural than if I put the same coin in a sock drawer and it toned over decades? How about if I somehow concentrate "eau de glass factory" and spray it on white coins in a warm, airtight box for a day or two? Any version is contaminents reacting with metal.
