    The sellers on E-Bay really crack me up. Take a look at this Franklin Half Dollar that the seller claims has NATURALLY toned surfaces. The rest of his description is equally hilarious. This is my favorite line: PATINA MEANING THAT THE COLOR SHIFTS WHEN THE COIN IS ROTATED IN DIFFERENT ANGLES. Anyway, here is his photo of his NATURALLY toned coin.

    I've seen worse "NT" coins than that on eBay. It's sad but somebody will buy that coin - because they like the colors - thinking it is NT. If they (or their estate) ever try to sell it to someone that knows NT from AT (e.g., a competent dealer) they will be sorely disappointed.

    troublesbrewin remember rotary phones?

    Well "Naturally" he held a propane torch to it, so it would match the tailpipe of the Harley he bought with his profits!!!
