    Amateurish but shiny. Goes to show you how slow developing elevation chromatics are a valuable tool for toning identification. One layer almost ways equals applied even if accidental.

    I'm not a toning guy. When I see those youtube videos where people dip and heat coins to tone them, I cringe.
    It just seems like irreparable damage to me.

    Sorry, no. It does not look “nice.” It is hideous. Let’s hope really collectible coins, which have limited supply, don’t have this done to them.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    It would be interesting to see the results of dipping this coin to see if the AT can be removed without showing any visible damage to this coin's surfaces.

    I kinda like the violet color between the electric blue and the untoned sections. Would look good on a motorcycle...not so much on a Peace $.

    To each his own, I suppose.

    Now those are some nice toners. Congrats and thanks for showing. Sorry but OP's coin is hideous and I like toning. I do not understand why AT guys spend so much time on Peace$, they do not tone well and when they do, they look nothing like NT coins. JMO

    I have been collecting coins since 1961. That is probably the worst looking coin that I have ever seen.

    This 1776/1976 Washington Quarter was given in change. It may look normal today, but from what I've noticed about the rainbow effect toners, just forget about it as there's a slight coating of magenta taking charge. Bag it and tag it and forget about it. We'll see ya 5yrs from now. Always 70* in here. Naturally.

    Actually ,this may explain an honest formula in advertising for this coin. Not like all the logos plastered at the raceway.
    Target buyer. (not for sale)
    Formula car fans, NASCAR fans or even a soap box car winner's trophy. (or the purse for any, lol ) Thus the word fanatic.
    The green infield needs some time to germinate itself naturally, if that's your goal.
