    Thanks for showing this! Something like this has the potential to damage coins mechanically. If the area of maximal curvature had been over one of the larger coins, surface scratching could have occurred. I wonder if similar warping can occur with TPG slabs.

    I did not think of that. I did wonder about the melting point of the TPG slabs though.

    @Conder101 has a theory about why brown ikes tend to be very hazy in their OGP. This is a very similar situation to his position on the ikes, just to an extreem

    Here are the others. You can see the color has faded in the material the coins are housed in. The set has been stored with the obverse facing up which is why only that side has faded.

    Would those be what they mean by "artificially toned"?

    No, he’s summoned a bunch of members to examine your pics.

    Hey, Katana. I bet you get plenty of responses if you start your own thread.

    I’m not expert on toned coins by any means. I only own a handful. So, I’m going to yield to members with more expertise on the topic. I’ll be most interested to hear what they say.

    I included several members who commented back in May for an update on the coins.

    I also knew several of them would just love another thread on AT vs NT because well who wouldn’t...

    Now we sit back and wait.

    I see. A conspiracy of some kind. I'm always up for that.
