<< <i>Tuesday, February 14th 2006....Brandon in response to the allegations that Peace dollar might not be naturally toned...
"I would have to agree that the toning this Peace dollar exhibits is not typical of what one would find on a Peace dollar. That is simply a reason this coin is so special. However, if you are looking for a very naturally toned Peace dollar, you might just want to pick up a white one because even relatively nice toning in general is not common on Peace dollars. Your opinion of "very naturally toned" seems a bit biased on what you percieve to be "natural toning". I happen to know exactly where this coin came from and how it toned. I need no further evidence as the colors are what I would expect to find on a heavily enveloped toned Peace dollar. "
Ouch!
The coin was later proven to have been ATed. >>
Heavily enveloped? So it was stuck into an envelope and then heat was applied?
I'm still not convinced it is AT. I'm just going by the picture. The correct color progression is there, but I thought as it worked its way toward the rims the colors were supposed to get darker, not lighter. But I use oversaturation of the photos as an explanation for that.

A album toned coin would have darker toning at the rims with lighter toning in the center, an envelope toned coins has darker toning at the center/high points of the design that gets lighter towards the rims. Here is an example of a classic envelope toner morgans.....notice the matching toning on both sides with the deeper colors on the devices....
