It is just a fancy description for light golden beige toning, similar to the color of champagne(or sparkling wine outside of the namesake French region). Report this Post to the Staff

I think it is a light rose or pink tint. I have a few coins toned like this naturally but it isn't the most common color. I would say gold and blue are more common. Oh, I edit and could be wrong. I did not see Bio's color comment. Edited by TNG 10/09/2011 9:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
