Need toning name.

littlewicher

I have a coin where the toning starts in the middle. Opposite of bullseye toning. Is there a name for it?

How about, "Retarded owners Artificially toned Piece of crap, no one wants, don't have a name for, loser, cheater in posts, toning"

I think that would fit your coin well.

Ray

Or go with the eyesllub...that will work too.

Edited to add the smiley as it was brougth to my attention that the words I wrote could have been misstook for something harsh...

Anyone see Goldenmember, when he kept saying Mole...Mooole, Mole....

Everytime I see lw, I want to say...cheater...cheater....cheater...in the same monotone...

But in no way am I exagerating or benting the truth, I tell it like it is, call it like I see it.

Thanks for your correction,
Ray

littlewicher

No, it's in a PCGS holder. It's natural.

moursund

Wow, Ray, such vitriol!

littlewicher - how about simply - "reverse bull's eye" ?

moursund

How about negative bullseye? Or center-toned?

am

mrpaseo

How about Bulls-ass toning, you know...from the center out...lol.

Sorry, really I am,
Ray

Edited to add Bull, someone else (Whom chose to remain unames) suggested that. I thought it was better than what I had.

I don't think anyone is going to mistake the intent of your post, with our without the smiley...

that was a good one Mr. Paseao!!! Very rude but very funny!!!!


I go with Mark's reverse bullseye.

Russ

Tough crowd.

LW,

Post a scan of the coin. We would all like to see it.

I'm still looking around for a quality digital camera. If no one knows what it's called, I'm going to name it! "Wich's Toning" Please start addressing coins that have toning that starts in the middle as Wich's Toning.

Just use your scanner. We're not that picky.

Some numismatists use "target toning" or "cabinet toning" as adjectives.

post a picture. if you can't. Email me a JPG and I'll post it for you

stockwiz

just make up a new word and copyright it like accugrade does. You might as well start your own grading service since you have your own trademarked word, as well.

Placid

Spit spot toning.

How about iris toning?

berylcoin

Wouldn't it be "pupil toning"?

BC

raredeal

Nope. The iris is the colored part or your eye, so that's what I was refering to.

I even looked it up to double check after you said that in case I goofed it up.

dorkkarl

it's very unusual to see the colors reversed, does not necessarily sound legit. it would mean the center of the coin was in contact with whatever reacted to cause the toning, while the edges were free. are you sure it''s original tone???

That wouldn't work, stockwiz... ACG only trademarked one of their words, and that expired a while ago... he'd just have to pretend it was TM

mrpaseo

This type of toning is done by putting a small pin hole in the center of the envelope or celephane wrap that the coin is in. This way, the only outside air/chemical/Artificial toning process...hits the coin through the hole, and in the middle of the coin.

Mole....Mooooole.....Mole....Moley, moley, moley.......MOLE!

I finally got a scan of the coin. It's not the best picture, because I have a piece of crap scanner. I'm going to get a new scanner some time in the future.

Does it look something like this:

Stained 1999

Around these parts, we call that a stain.
