    I found this coin in my office the other day... someone had given it to my daughter six years ago, and she gave it to me for "safe" keeping. This is the surprised I received when I flipped the case open!

    Some people pay premiums for these type coins. I find them interesting, but not real eye appealing(just my opinion).

    Toning fads come and go. At least it's still bullion.

    Well, I'm glad some people like it! It probably wouldn't be too bad if it didn't have that horizontal streak across it. The reverse has no toning at all. Thanks for the comments... I feel better about the coin now.

    I'd prefer that one over a blast white specimen any day of the year.

    I'll trade you for a white one.

    yeah, I know no offrs to buy or sell here, but this was too tempting to not say.

    I like it.
