I don't have a way o post a pic. so best i can do is offer a description; seated quarter p.c.g.s. 66, cresent blue around the date and part of the right periphery the blue is almost a neon blue and the luster is full and blazing under the cresent toning. How does cresent toning happen? barberlover
The President claims he didn't lie about taxes for those earning less then $250,000 a year with public mandated health insurance yet his own justice department has said they will use the right of the government to tax when the states appeals go to court.

i call it an arc of toning
and how this happens more often than not is when a coin is pushed into an album even the older wayte raymond albums or whatever albums of long ago the coins were a tight fit!
and when the coin is pucsed in at an angle where the coin is tilted then it sometimes tones this way depending on the conditions and/or storage and when it was taken out of the album
also if the coin has been dipped and if put like this at an angle in the album tilted in the album hole
then it wioll tone fastewr and get totally different colors/look then an original coin with its original skin when put into the album
of course the original coin is much better and rarer and the original coin will develop more of a rainbow with a certian look to it AND THE surfaces thick skinned surfaces where the coin is not tonewd
if you showed me this coin in peraon maycbe i could tell you better
some are easier to tell and see for sure than others

Why do I so often see a coin toned on the obverse but not the reverse?
i would love to see this coin in person!!
look good!!!!
i have seen many coins like you say toned on one side really deeply toned and then basically untoned on the other side!
i am guessing that most probably the toned surface lay somewhere on a piece of cloth or something with sulfur on it or some element that toned the coin and the white side was protected by somekind of neutral inert material?? for me not an album toned coin

can occur when two coins are stacked together, off-center from each oterh, & in the right (artificial) environment, the exposed portions of the metal tones artificially, wherease the un-exposed metal tones naturally.
