I need a link to smoe outrageously AT Morgans

My son is putting the finishing touches on his science project "Beauty or Tarnish?: Thin Film Interference and the Toning of Silver Coins"

He has plenty of pics of his own experiments but was never able to accomplish an outrageous toned coin. Most came out black or near black but none in the reds, purples, blues and oranges that I have seen invarious threads. He wants to put smoe pics of these wild neon coins on the page to show how smoe people manipulate the chemistry of a coin to create the perceived value. Any links or pics would be helpful. He only needs one or two photos but wants a variety to choose from.

thanks!!

  • Ah, Danny, glad you dropped in, I sometimes lurk in the open forum, short periods due to my blood pressure, and I wanted to thank you for fighting the good fight against the naysayers and girlie men. Good on ya. Got some really wild AT frankies, if you want them, but can't help with morgans.

  • Thanks Pharmer. Any wildly AT coins will work as long as the photo is large enough to print well. I mentioned Morgans since that is what he used in his project.

  • image Geez, Pat, he said artificially toned, not atomic tested. It is incredible, and covers both beauty and tarnished nicely. Le Projecte es finis.

    Morgans = dollars = Silver Eagles! image

    Either one will buy you a small cup of Starbucks coffee!

    Or at least the little paper sleeve that cup goes in.....

    Just a suggestion - how about getting an image of a Morgan and cooking it big time in Photshop? You could make it red if you wanted to!
