SAE Toning

jmcu12

Take a look at my SAE. The coin has been toning for about a year, but is being in a plain brown envelope considered natural to you?

And I am not selling it, I just wanted to see how it would come out.

Yes. Those whisps of toning breaks are the 'tell'. This one's authentically toned.

jmcu12, by brown envelope, you mean a manila envelope ??

Anything that ugly passes the NT test in my book.

Those toning breaks are fingerprints, that's what that tells.

I would say that one is 100% natural. Congrats most SAE's aren't.

That looks a lot like the one that I have sitting in the open on my window sill. It's been there about a year now.

Actually, most probably are. SAE's have such a high content of silver that they react incredibly quickly with anything that causes toning. Yes, some are toned with heat, but an album or aftermarket holder can tone them in a relatively short matter of time.

That said, this is likely NT like the rest of them--I wouldn't call an envelope ATing a coin.

Let me rephrase, most I see at show's are AT.
