with the exception of us lucky ones here in the south and west.....Post a coin you have found that has some great toning.........It'll be tough for some of us, because we clean a portion of the coins after we find them...

But I only wash my coins with water and give them an acetone bath here lately, to preserve the toning that is on some of them...here are a few:


I love the toning on the rims of this one:

The reverse of this Half dollar:

and both sides of this seated dime:

I have more I'll post later in the thread...what do you guys have?

    Those are exceptional coins with the toning. I have yet to find anything that's toned, but I have plenty that have a bunch of green crap on them that are unrecognizable. Do those count? image

    Not only is it too cold but we have more than 2 feet of snow on the ground.
