Remember when cooking your coins for toning

Always saute your onion in a little butter, before

adding your coins to the pan.
There once was a place called

    You must have missed the post I made about how I cooked a coin. It was dumped in boiling water and everything in the kitchen was slowly added. Powdered onion, garlic, basil, etc., etc.

  • I had a 1928-s SLQ raw mint state I unintentionally put on the dashboard of my car during the summer.
    I had just purchased the coin at a show and then realized I was not that crazy about the thing.
    With the humidity, high inside temperature, direct sunlight, and all the heat inside the car
    during July it cooked all right and toned it into one awesome looking coin. I remember how nice the
    obverse looked so I flipped it over like a barbecue chicken and did the other side. I sold it raw for a profit
    to a dealer who had it certified as a 67, I think it was SEGS, and he too turned it into a much higher profit.
