    Frank,

    I see you're a minimalist! image

  • I went for " Coin Number 1 " because both sides look more like a " Sunset " to me then the others. Bit of a generic answer but have you seen a sunset with cool endroll toning? imageimage

    You guys aren't making this very easy - and why doesn't anyone like the reverse toned one?

    The obverse is the most looked at side of the coin; therefore, if you are going for tone, wouldn't the obverse need the tone?

  • I like #1 also because the toning shows on both sides. Very pretty coin, Frank image

    Frank....The reverse toner is cool, but that end roller is outstanding.image
  • As with my first post, in my eyes at least, I see it as more fitting into the theme of a " Sunset " that you see in the sky. #2 has really nice reverse toning but the ticks on the obverse takes some of the appeal away for me. #3 is an awesome endroller but, doesn`t fit into what I see as a " Sunset " like #1. It`s more like an algae green that you see in a creek.

    Jimbo! Don't get technical on me! LOL - Sunset Kennedy's is going to be the name of the set, but it'll include some coins with toning other than "sunset" themed. All of these endroll toners happen to have the same basic color scheme, the bottom one is has purple and green thrown in for good measure while the top two are more gold with hints of blue. The top two were the two ends of the same roll image

    DOH!!!

    All 3 are really nice and sympathise with your dilemma.image The sunshine does reflect into the creek and does lend you to see the algae......
