Toned gold anyone?

barney

Has anyone seen a gold piece slabbed by PCGS or NGC that has red, purple, and blue? Well, I have one! It's a raggy 1923 NGC 62 Saint but it has some far-out colors. I tried to scan it but it doesn't work very well-I posted a pic of it before (Ebay Item # 1385760692 ).

If anyone has unusually-toned type gold that they want to sell please let me know. I'm putting a type set together, and of course I'm always lookin' for those 'cc's.

Take care,
Barn

Toned gold anyone?

Sure, why not. I like toned gold,.....heck, I like any kind of gold, as long as it's mine.

Hey Kiefer,

If you're looking for a nice Chain 1c Jon from RCNH has one in PCGS VG-08. He's asking over $5000, though. Don't see too many nice ones like that. I'm trying to stick to my plan!

Good luck,
Barn

I used to have a lovely high grade toned Cal gold piece. It's now in the strong hands of Toneboy, Wondercoins protege. I think he claimed and purchased it at age 8.

Is it the copper in it that tones like that? I thought gold, as a rule, was very non-reactive.

I remember you posting that when you bid on it... how does it compare to the photo in person?

The coin itself is psychedelic, especially on the reverse. The obverse has the rosy hue as seen on the coin and has minimal bag marks, but the reverse, despite a dark stain
above the eagle, had a wild assortment of yellow, orange, red, and even blue! Too bad it's only a 62, but its handling is probably how it picked
up the wild color.

I'll try to scan it again sometime, but it doesn't work very well. Oh, the NGC slab has a ding in the middle of the obverse, too.
