TRULY, the coin's colors and luster are better in hand.

Thanks for looking!

OK, that coin actually lives up to the billing in the subject line. Super nice.

P.S.

But seriously, it's beautiful... I do think that's the nicest Kennedy toner I've seen.

Wow, that is really pretty- it walks, it talks, it glows in the dark!

I too remember GSAguy having a similar coin (if not the same).

On second thought, I'll deal with this later.

are batteries included?

If this is the one Gsaguy owned over a year ago.... I've seen it in person. I thought Bear bought it. I recall it had nice color. Not so sure it was this bright and vivid color though. But this might not be the same coin and what do I know. But I know you're gonna tell me it looks just like this in person so what a wasted post huh?

Edit.... I just saw the part you mentioned the colors are better in hand. See, what do I know.

What year did all buildings generally have indoor climate control of temp and humidity? Its almost too perfect, I'm tearing up inside as want so hard to believe

Very nice colors! but they are very unatural- I vote AT all the way. mike

There is a story going around that someone here took a bunch of Kennedy's, put them in 2X2 paper
envelopes and taped them to the radiator of his car for several weeks and sold them to one of the dealers here.
They were supposed to be slabbed with beautiful colors. The guy that did the AT job did not tell the dealer how he did this untill after he bought them. Is that one of these?

darktone

It looks more like one of those PCI silver eagles than anything. mike

This is a lovely coin which I recently saw in person. The coin looks just like the picture.

There is nothing about the colors, their order, or the smoothness of the transition that indicates the coin is AT. It looks natural and very beautiful to me.

Hey, who said AT???

Absolutely Georgeous!!!

Thanks all for your comments!

I don't know about that radiator story....but I do know that with the premimum the market is putting on toning right now that someone has probably tried it, or will try after reading this.

Totally agree.

Pretty coin though.

Yes, the pictured coin is an old friend of mine and yes, it does look like the pic that Doug posted.

While I'm not generally a Kennedy man and therefore have looked at only a fraction of them as compared to toned Morgans, it is hard to imagine a better example. Until I see it in person, the piece pictured is far and away the nicest I've ever handled.

GSAGUY

Edited to add: Just for the record, I've owned the coin twice.....and hope to live long enough to own it yet again.
