I like it.

I especially like the feathers on the wings.

I like it too... Is the obverse the same?

FrattLaw

Is it AU or just weakly struck???

Oh yeah the toning -- okay, not great not fugly -- small premium at best.

coingame2000

Hate to say it Russ -- but it looks AT to me also.

AT wrong colors for the coin.

AT! Wrong Colors for the coin. Also the Color looks layed over the coin and thick, almost non transparent.

Looks like a 1946 DDR. I don't like the toning.

i think it's pretty.
prolly wasnt a ton o money either.
course Russ did not show the obverse or disclose the date,if its a 41 P AU,he paid about 5 bucks for it !

Put a coin in a glass jar with a book of matches and you could probably duplicate this toning. mike

I also thought that the toning looked a wee bit artificial.....

JxnBoy

I don't like the look, not just because it looks AT, but I don't think the colors look right on this coin. I have to agree with proof, I don't think Russ would pay that much for a coin that looks AT. Russ, you're playing with the newbs, right?

Do you have to light the matches?

Russ:

Nice color... just curious... what does the NCNE stand for? If this has already been asked and answered a dozen times, I must have missed it a dozen times.

Russ: I'm not a toned coin expert, but I feel that the toning may have been artificially applied to cover up some light (AU) wear on the eagle's breast.

I have to agree with TonedCoinTrader's above quote.

Bodybag material.....But she is pritty

AT, but it probably made it in a holder.

Russ;
You didn't mention the date. What is the date?

darktone

<< <i>Do you have to light the matches? >>

no lighting the matches will give a whole different look. mike

Russ

It's a 1942.

I think it's PP. (Potato Processed)

Russ

Almost forgot about this one. Yes, it's a shake 'n bake courtesy of Tonecoin2003. Besides being AT'd, it's abrasively cleaned. Lots of hairlining hiding under the paint job.
