I actualy really like the reverse on this one... And i think we got the theme.. with the 92 "altered surfaces" this and the 82 I think I shall call it "The $50 Modified Morgan set" anyway... not for the faint of heart....

My thoughts are to interest one of my 5 2-5yr old granddaughters in coins early... evil rainbow monsters seem to fit the bill
Yikes. I’ve seen these on eBay before and have always wondered what look like in hand. If possible, please post a photo when you get it.
the 1st one I ordered arrived today (1882o) and I posted it on the other thread It was just as if not brighter then this one.. (same seller) so here it is again... and I'll post this one (87) in a few days when it arrives...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, prior to posting any other coin that looks like that, give us a "PUT ON THE SUN GLASSES" warning. OUCH! Semper Fi Phil
Hey Now!! I gave good fair warning and even forced a scroll down... Leave it to a jarhead to head for the sound of fire without thought Go Navy!!!!
@Omegaraptor Acetone won't remove toning IF the toning was caused by exposure to a sulfurous compound, or hydrogen sulfide/sulfur dioxide gas, as this exposure causes a thin film of mostly silver sulfide (an hence a progression of color, eventually progressing to black, depending upon the thickness of the film deposited and exposure to temperature and humidity) which is insoluble in Acetone. Some coins that have toning were actually exposed to a chemical which dyed the surface--usually in a monotone--and this dyed toning may be able to be dissolved or significantly lightened with a solvent like Acetone. If you desire to remove toning--depending upon how extensive it is--you will have to use an acidified or Thiourea based "dipping" agent.
