    Just got this in the mail today. Turned out nicer than I was expecting, based on the seller pictures.

    Oh, yeah! Nice n' "crusty" in the right way!

    The little bit of scuz inside the first "8" doesn't look so bad in your photos. I'd try a little acetone and a toothpick, maybe, to try and carefully remove that without disturbing the underlying toning, if possible. Otherwise, looks great!

    Perfect one to attach to the new baby's binkey ;)

    If I put on an adult diaper and say "waaah!" and show you my toothless upper gum, will you put some toned gold on MY binkie? ;)
