  • I don't think so. But, not only would some people not like the toning, but they wouldn't like the fingerprints that it highlights either. Me, I think it is an interesting looking coin.

    Actually, if it didn't have that big fingerprint shaped break in the toning, I would also like it.

  • I know that finger prints are a bad thing, but in this case I think it is part of what makes it so interesting.

    I'm talking about collecting and not looking at future resell value....

    I hate it when you see my post before I can edit the spelling.

  • I almost bought that coin because of the reverse doubling, and I really like the seller. But I just couldn't get over that fingerprint.. or handprint, jeesh that thing is huge.

    If it could be shown that the fingerprint actually belonged to someone famous ,

    then the coin could be valuable.

    The toning craze has brought ugly coins into fashion. No, you're not crazy.
  • JMoore, if you like it, you like it. What it is, is what it is. Others are just pointing out a visual flaw on the coin.

    Damn the torpedoes, collect what you like! Don't worry about trying to impress. Kscope
  • Jim:

    I agree with Russ.

    You're crazy.
