What say you?

Thunder clouds and a rainbow... seems too dark to be MA?

PCcoins · April 29, 2011 2:28AM

not sure really? Has the look of NT, but I've seen similar colors produced artifically and the reverse is blast white.

ERT?

My first, gut, reaction is NT

DIMEMAN · April 29, 2011 3:14AM

I don't know......but I like it.

What is MA?

Bochiman · April 29, 2011 3:25AM

MA = Market Acceptable
(ie....may be AT but hard enough to tell that it gets holdered and is considered market acceptable)

DIMEMAN · April 29, 2011 3:54AM

My bad as they say.

How about NT!

If I just saw the image and knew no background I would lean heavily towards NT...knowing who sold it....tells me there is a 99% chance it's AT. That's a coin I would love to see in hand to see how the color and luster lay on the surface.....

Looks NT to me.

MA.

I like the rainbow and thunder clouds analogy.

I don't ever see 1916 dimes looking like this. They are either dipped out or have that darkish brown/black mottled look to them.
(could be AT as well.....Accelerated Toning).

I would call this market acceptable. Because of the toning on the reverse along with carbon spots on the obverse and the way it all blends together I think the toning was unintentional.

Raybo · April 29, 2011 9:24AM

Is it yours relics?
I really like it 'cept for the black spot on Libertys wing.

Coppercolor · April 29, 2011 11:06AM

The hairy carbon and dark foggy areas on the upper obverse say to me the coin was dipped and then quickly put in storage or contact with a toning source. But it doesn't look accelerated with gas or liquid or e-

I've seen lincolns that I suspected received a very minor cleaning then pick up the thinny type of peripheral toning from albums - and the giveaway are the hairy carbon spots always in the corner of a letter or in the crevace of the relief.
