That is beautiful - are you going to try to get it in a slab, do you think it will make it in either PCGS or NGC?

It looks touched by chemicals to me.

Of course it's touched by chemicals. That's how any toning occurs. The question is was it touched by the right chemicals over a long period of time, or the wrong chemicals over a short period.

It looks to me like A. Swimmer has expanded into coppers.
