FC57Coins · August 2, 2003 11:52AM

BigE · August 2, 2003 12:12PM

Nice, please give me the formula

Hey Russ, are you sure you didn't paint that? Guess your becoming a Picasso!

coiNuts · August 2, 2003 12:16PM

Now was that 7 1/2 minutes in the microwave or 7 1/2 years under the microwave..........I always forget the formula for the Jeffersons..................................

Russ · August 2, 2003 12:18PM

I can guarantee that I had nothing to do with the toning on that coin.

Perhaps I've been immersed in old copper for too long, but I would summarily reject that coin out of hand as AT'd and not give it a second look.

wingedliberty · August 2, 2003 12:23PM

WOW!!

cladking · August 2, 2003 12:28PM

Wow! That is stunning and quite unusual.

I'd bet it was in the light if NT.

Wolfy00002 · August 2, 2003 12:28PM

Even though it's already been said, and I'm sure you will be told again, you haven't ever heard it from me, so I shall give you a great big........

YOU REALLY SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!

but nice coin!

ursabear · August 2, 2003 12:29PM

Russ,

YS!

Actually, that's the coolest Jefferson I've seen, too. Very nice!

BigE · August 2, 2003 12:42PM

<< <i>I can guarantee that I had nothing to do with the toning on that coin.

Did you show your wife how to do it--------BigE

millennium · August 2, 2003 12:44PM

Holy cow!....How can that coin tone like that?

djm · August 2, 2003 12:46PM

Speaking of toned Jefferson Proofs did anyone see the one in the B & M auction Lot 561?? The opening bid was $300 but it got no bids. What would you have offered for that coin?

Russ · August 2, 2003 12:47PM

Actually, the coin isn't mine. It belongs to one of the participants in this thread.

Russ, NCNE

DennisH · August 2, 2003 12:53PM

WOW!

Is that in a holder?

lablover · August 2, 2003 1:02PM

Great looking Jeff...Boy, I got to get me one of these!!!

BigE · August 2, 2003 1:07PM

Ahhhhhhhhh! So its like the old Mission Impossible show, and you are playing Mr Phelps. Is the tape going to "self distruct and will you disavow any knowledge of it". lol---------BigE

DanC · August 2, 2003 1:33PM

Maybe they'd like to see the reverse as well?

vrtech99 · August 2, 2003 1:38PM

WOW is it 4 sale Russ?????

LucyBop · August 2, 2003 1:43PM

beat up ugly ol eyesore! pffftttt... kennedy heads!

relayer · August 2, 2003 1:43PM

It looks like the mirror twin of DanC's icon

my3cents · August 2, 2003 1:47PM

It's Danc's - you just reversed the coloring?

DanC · August 2, 2003 1:47PM

Awfully similar in a wierd sort of way isn't it?

I must admit - it's a "fantasy coin." I sent the original picture to Russ to show him what my next author icon would be.
We sorta hatched up this 'plot' to see how it'd be recieved.

Certainly there ARE coins like this somewhere - but this one exists only in my mind, and my photo software. I did think it was stunning however.

my3cents · August 2, 2003 1:50PM

sweet

Russ · August 2, 2003 1:50PM

Dan has mad skillz.

Russ, NCNE

LucyBop · August 2, 2003 1:50PM

aha!!!!

a fiendish kennedy head plot!!!

DanC · August 2, 2003 1:55PM

Mea Culpa.

I just wanted to see if I could do a really wild one that was ever-so-slightly believable. It's just a little photo work. In defense... I have owned both coins that went into this one.

BigE · August 2, 2003 2:00PM

Put it on E-Bay and lets see how much it will bring and pull it at the last minute------------BigE

Bear · August 2, 2003 2:03PM

I just knew it was a case of prestadigitation .

Russ, NCNE >>

OK, Frank, did you dip it in peanut butter grape jelly?

DanC · August 2, 2003 2:11PM

To borrow a line from the "Twilight Zone - The Movie"

Want to see something REALLY scary?

BWAAAAAH!

LucyBop · August 2, 2003 2:13PM

Bwaaaaauuuuuhaaaahaaaa!!!!

ElectricEye · August 2, 2003 2:20PM

that is simply terrifying

DanC · August 2, 2003 3:07PM

Could be scarier...

The most stunning toned proof Jefferson I've ever seen.
