His AT jobs are atrocious. Check out his other Indians, they all have this crazy blow torch toning.

-If it was of Dr. Braddick quality would it be any better?

How do you know he's doing that himself and isn't buying them that way?

That's pretty heavily toned for an EF-40 coin.

Yes, at least it would be attractive. Dr. B. was not the only one using that technique and the results of that technique are reminiscent of tissue toned proofs while this is cartoonish.

Very sad.

GoldenEyeNumismatics · October 17, 2006 11:25AM

jeez, the coin isnt even UNC

prooflike · October 17, 2006 11:40AM

you're just jealous because he (or she) is getting relatively big bucks for that cr8p.

I've seen this guy selling these for the better part of a year now. He is either making them or knows who is and condones it by selling them. Usually the coins are Unc. It's getting harder and harder to find original Indian Heads and this guy is ruining a dozen a week.

And people are actually buying that stuff......

Sunnywood · October 17, 2006 12:45PM

That appears to have been done with a jeweler's torch (a mini propane or oxy-acetylene torch with a small flame tip normally used for silver or gold-brazing of jewelry).

Pretty bad ...

I'll probably wait to see if the seller is a respected board member before I comment. It does matter ya know!!

<< <i>I'll probably wait to see if the seller is a respected board member before I comment. It does matter ya know!! >>

Not to me. I can't believe he got 225 bucks for a laughable AT XF-AU Type 1 1886.

how'd he do it only on one side?

clw54 · October 17, 2006 12:59PM

This toning craze is irrational.

That 1905 looked like a decent UNC. until he jacked it up.

BigE2 · October 17, 2006 1:04PM

Doesn't spend a lot of time on the desriptions, does he?

stman · October 17, 2006 1:04PM

So if it was a better job would that be better? Coinguy1 should be happy since it's on the "right" side?

He can justify it better.

Edit to add, if it is AT, why would they bother with such a coin?

I wish this clown would quit ruining IH cents!!!
