I agree. It screams "original", and the premium for toning like that over a "dipped and stripped" example of the same grade is very small (for the time being).

A perfect medal in so many ways for so many reasons... Love the color...

Always looking for attractive rim toned Morgan and Peace dollars in PCGS or (older) ANA/ANACS holders!

Pretty sure this is the best gilt example I got.
