    Thanks John! Glad to see you frequent this establishment. More evidence of what a classy place this forum is! (you still owe me that story on the raw toned type coin from a few months back!) image

    I've never seen one so vibrant. Makes me rethink my dislike of over the top toning.

    I'm still wondering why the color lines are so delineated. It seems strange to me to see such clear demarkation between the colors, particularly on the obverse. Any comments on whether this is AT or NT?

    I still think it's beautiful though. But if it's AT, I wouldn't pay any premium for it.

    Richard does excellent photography. When you receive the coin be sure not to open it outdoors in the bright sunlight as not to be disappointed.

    The colors will be there but just not a vibrant as in the photo.

    Relayer,

    Thanks for the info. I actually had the coin in hand before I bought it (lucky me!). I can happily say with certainty that the coin EXCEEDS the pics. No tilting necessary on this baby! image

    About 3 years ago at a big show in Chicago, I saw several Lib & Buff nickels in a certain dealers case along with a few Peace dollars that all had nearly that exact same coloration and pattern, especially the nickels, and they were all raw coins.
