ebay linkLook at most of his toned coins. They all have the same type colored ring iin the middle. Notice the morgans so-called DMPL? they all have that grainy look to them. If you go though his feedback and look at what he has sold. Not to mention a killing. But most of the coins are the same ones. Where would anyone get alomost perfect coins of the same lot? How aobut his so-called toned ones. Something is very fishy with this guy?

    He keeps his nose clean if you notice he does not give any description on any of the coins. Its like they are stamped out and sold by bulk. He will put in the return policy and if you return it no big deal. He has 100.000 other ones in a box in his basement. I thell ya something is not right the more I look at this guy.

    Looks like a lot of AT's....His pix look too good to be true...Maybe photoshopped???

    I'm not liking the way some of his proof coins look...

    Experts?

    I sure wish I had a die stamp that could mass produce these. Man this guy... I dont know. If you step back and give it a thought. Could you think of one dealer you know that has the exact same collection, look, years etc that this guy has? He needs to be looked at closer. I have sent him 5 eamils asking about his proof morgan and did not receive one response. NOT ONE!

    I'm new here but not to coins or ebay. I recently won an untoned Buffalo 5c from him and am waiting for it to arrive. I did email him regarding these toners...he replied that he never doctors any coins...they do look a bit too perfect though...

    I am sure he is right. HE NEVER DOCOTORS THE COINS. Its the elfs in his basement. I never received one email back from him. I was very specific about my questions. maybe that is why he never responded?

    And, that IS textile toning, not fingerprints.
