  If it is not market acceptable today, it may well be acceptable tomorrow. You just never know.

  It depends on storage conditions. I have heard stories of toners [assume they were NT] being put away in SDBs and forgotten about and years later the coins were junk. It can actually turn one off to the idea of collecting toners.

  Got a pic?
  
  If you know it's AT, even if it's attractive, it might be better to stay away

  If the AT was caused by chemicals and they were not completely rinsed off or neutralized, the toning can continue to darken even after the coin has been slabbed.

  Toning will continue if the causitive atmosphere remains unchanged. Whether AT or NT... it is all toning. The argument is specious at best. If you like it... fine, if not - pass. Eventually, if the environment does not change... all toners will become black. Cheers, RickO

  I thought black was beautiful. Must be on people but not on coins apparently.
