I forgot to mention that I got to see the Rainbow Peace dollar that TBT recently posted a photo of. His picture is lovely, but he is right, the coins luster is far more impressive in person. If I can find the thread, I'll link the picture to this one. mdwoods

    Wow. If the luster is better than the pic, then that must be an absolutely stunning coin. I'm a skeptic when it comes to a lot of the toning madness that so prevalent these days, but even in my skeptical opinion, that's a coin worth going mad over. Lovely!

    I also think the light could be a bright flourecent light
    That would really make those colors jump out like they do I think.

    But it still looks like its all there. Rock solid NT or better toning through chemisrty it has good eyeappeal for a toner.
    Does it seem sometimes the color may be distracting you from some other element of the coins condition?
    Sometimes it does to me,

    WOW!, since even mildly attractive toning on Peace doallrs is very uncommon, a coin with this this type of toning (assuming it is not AT) is, well WOW, or should I saw extra WOW!!

    So lets recap. PCGS slab, seen by several board members and ok'ed, and still the arm chair graders must say things........BTW, florecent light was not used. Yes, the boards keep getting better and better by running off folks that share coins they could not dream of getting or flaming dealers for what ever reason they feel is good at the time.

    Later guys, it was fun but you have become a hard group to read and respond to.

    All I did from my arm chair was offer a guess at the grade. I guess that's flaming now. BTW, was I close?

    Well, I happen to think that is one fine toned piece of Peace.

    I'd love to add that to my collection, premium or not.

    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    TBT got his panties in a wad.
    Shame on you guys for asking why the slab is purple. You shouldn't flame dealers like that.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
  • stmanstman Posts: 11,352 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I don't care why the slab is purple. I don't care what color the coin is... I wanna know the grade.

    stman that coin was not posted here for discussion so just drop it. If you can't ohhhhh & ahhhhhh or post a butt kissing post you are not welcome here.
    The dealers are tired of you running them off because they share coins you could not dream of getting.

    Ok boss, I'm gone then. No butt kissing from me.

    Me, all I did was offer a grade opinion. BTW, whoever made that statement needs to wake up, they are still sleeping. Any coin that I REALLY want I buy.
