Piramide Del Castillo 5oz silver TONED coin! Newp from tonight.

This coin is awesome! I just got it tonight from a good friend and fellow board member. :)
Check out this toning along with the satiny luster. This coin is absolutely awesome!
It came in this felt bag, no doubt it's original toning.

    Woah, 5 oz? So it's like the size of one of the ATB Hockey Pucks the US mint issued? :+1:

    Put it in a sock, and you have a weapon! :lol:

    It's similar in size to the 5oz quarters.

    Wow. I'm not really in love with the tone, but the piece itself is right up my alley.

    These coins tone up nicely.

    I like the series as well, though I'm with Weiss on the toning that looks a bit "Taco Bellish" on rev. Still, if you got it at a good price, nice buy.

    Well, just Love coins, period.
