Without seeing the link I'm going to let it hang out and say some enhancement has happened.

aest236, thank you for the prompt link!

Oh forgot to reply. I love the toning on it. I have trouble grading coins scanned that closely however. I like how the toning almost matches on both obverse and reverse. It'd look quite nice in my toned type set (spent too much this week already though )

I did not cheat !!

I'll go back to a old statement. To make a coin picture look like that the coin must have some color. Just maybe not as much as shown.

<< <i>1936 NGC MS67 Star Rainbow Mercury 10¢... This coin has that special look that collectors drool over. This coin is under graded and is an MS67 IMHO. Cool coin! No reserve >>






Good looking coin, though.

It's a beautiful coin, almost a FSB? the obv. looks like a weak strike considering its a 67 but i know when you buy a coin like this your buying the colors not the coin.

I bought some dimes from "greattoning" before and the coin pictures were NOT enhanced as far as I can tell....

Looks like "blow torch" toning to me. Not that I've tried it myself <g>.

All kidding aside, very unusual toning........and the great picture picture really show it off.

Actually, I'd like to hear from some members on how toning like this occurs - looks much more like the toning on Morgans.
