    During my AT experiments (done to give me examples of AT so I could learn how to detect them) I managed to make one green one. You think it would slab image?

    The coin actually looks nice in hand; however, the reverse came out nicer than the obverse. The obverse is green too, only it is a shade darker and not as nice in my opinion. Too much chemical was used on the obverse, I don't think it would be hard to get it nice either on both sides or to leave one side almost untoned and have the other side look like this one. For a brief discussion on how it was done go to Link to thread at ATcoins.com.
