Why I'm glad I'm colorblind....

After looking at some of the prices people will pay for "rainbow toning" I am glad I can't see it! While I like toned silver and would rather have a toned silver coin than non-toned (at least for the era I collect - pre 1838 British), I just can't see the logic in paying 10x catalog for toning.image

  • People actually pay more money for a coin if it is tanished? Seems strange to me. image

    I prefer bright white coins myself. I love that "just minted" look.
