"All Toned Silver Coins were stored in my family’s Concord grape winery cellar at Put-in Bay, Ohio since 1963-1984 and are recently being cataloged and listed.
The toned coins are a result of being wrapped in tissue paper stored in cardboard boxes that were placed near the barrels of aging wine."
At least they didn't come from a 200 year old pottery store.

I did not find any listings... perhaps my search was inadequate, got anymore information? Cheers, RickO

It’s in the description. Don’t know why anyone would put their contractor’s license number on a coin auction.
It is publicly accessible.

Need 3d glasses to fully appreciate!
I like the term "end stage toning." While it may not be terminal toning, the coin does look terminal (in a sick sort of way).
Must have been the wine.
This is nuts. What a mess😖
Another edynamic clone.
Looks like they were dipped.....in the wine.
Baked at 350 degrees for at least 12 minutes.
the quarter looks neat but that's as far as it goes
With chocolate chips!
No, it's a winery...it's grapes.
