    I like the coin, but that's WAY too much of a toning premium for me to purchase it (isn't the coin worth about $300 sans-toning?).

    Collector of Large Cents, US Type, and modern pocket change.

    Maybe poor ethics is where the money is. Heres a toned peace i own. ill juice it up and maybe someone will throw 5k my way. Oh its in an OGH holder, so ill only charge 200$ for the cost of keeping it in the current holder. Oh and its got a clash on the reverse so Ill only charge another 200$ for looking for it. Did I juice it enough? I can juice it some more if anyone is interested for 5400$.

    That has got to be one of the ugliest coins that I have ever seen!image

    Excellent question. I'm confident that the image in the original post isn't as good of an image that could be had ("and now, ladies and gentleman...the award for the most understated comment of the year....goes to........)

    but

    if it truly is PCGS graded and CAC stickered, I would imagine that the majority of experienced coin dealers would put the chit on the side of "original" if they had it in hand.


    And wouldn't it be a shame if PCGS and CAC refused to holder/sticker coins that they thought were original just because some people might say they are not?

    No, I wasn't planning on purchasing it. I had come across it while browsing the R&I coins website, and was quite shocked with what I saw...
