This from a seller named morganlover58, an edynamicmarketing wannabe. Dude must really hate Washingtons, tho.

Ugh.
Looks like rainbow sherbet!
I don’t think that there was much of coin there before he totally ruined it. That’s the good part.
It wouldn't surprise me if that coin had an added mint mark. If that were my coin, I'd dip it.

I really like the date and mint mark on that coin!
He's not restricting his talents to just Washingtons. High grade circulated Seated Half Dollars are in play, too.
And we can't forget commems.
I noticed a Stone Mountain earlier today on eBay that looked like that. Guess who was the seller.

some people like coins that look like a bomb is going off in the background.

Anything with the "rainbow sherbet" look is a dead give away.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Isn't that a mummers hat ?
Sherbet toning-now that's a new one!
What? The rainbow sherbet analogy was MY idea!
Now I know how Rosalind Franklin felt....
Indeed it was!
LOL!! I didn't even see that!!!!! My eyes just went straight to the pictures! Proof that great minds think alike!
Full credit is due to IkesT!

Wow!
We can split the royalties.
Just like James Watson
As did my eyes.
A big time pass on all of it. As nice as the pics look fwiw
Calling those coins doctored are an insult to the real coin doctors....That is the work of a janitor....

Agree. This guys coins don't look anything like natural toning. A real coin doctor makes their AT coins look natural and their coins get slabbed since their toning is MA (market acceptable).

Doctor, my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long
"Got a flaming heart, can't get my fill"
I've started to comment about 5 times on this and get frustrated each time.
The juiced TV's, cooked coins and devious descriptions are all too much.
It's just such an insult.

My Washington Quarter Registry set...in progress
It is so bright it's hard to look at, my eyes actually felt pain.
Chances are he bought trashed coins to start with as his "canvas." At least I hope that's the case.

The quarter looks fooled with. Can't tell with the others.
Curly of the three stooges,
Life lesson #7
"I resemble that"
Those photos hurt my soul.
For years, I have called coins like these numismatic abortions.
Many AT coins can be dipped resulting in a market acceptable coin.

I think the quarter is beyond redemption.
Just saw his listings earlier, had to fix some blown pixels from that blatant AT/saturation. He does have a handful of neutral feedbacks, a few are telling:
Coin was cleaned /artificial Toning
1915 S Panama-Pacific Commemorative Silver Half Dollar BU Beautiful Coin. 710
Coin looked nothing like pic
1933 SAINT GAUDENS DOUBLE EAGLE DESIGN LARGE 1 OZ Ounce Copper ROUND. <-- maybe the pic made it look gold?
Coin was cleaned. Seller should have known. Left nuetral
1884 P DMPL MORGAN SILVER DOLLAR CAMEO KEY DATE .
His listings are a good place to train your eyes if you are new to toning. Then you will be more educated on AT and photo twerking.

Pure, unadulterated trash. Sad...

You have to remember that some collectors just plain like this stuff. They do not care how it became to be the way it
looks, just that it looks so cool to them. we can critizise edynamicmarketing but they seem to have found their
nitch. They would not be posting all those AT coins unless people were buying them.
a.k.a "The BUFFINATOR"
There ought to be a law against this........Oh wait.................
True but I don't think it's wise to be paying the crazy money some of these sell for.
Looking at the feedback there are many buyers who like the coins.
That's pretty amazing.
Ugh. toning like that reminds me of an oil slick.
A lot of AT@lovers out there, keeps em in business! I did buy a decent m64 Dmpl Morgan from them
last year at a good price.
Here's a "Target" toned Merc!
Oh the evil men do to coinage.
I must admit that Merc is kinda pretty! Not for me, tho.
