Why do you think these are AT? CuNi coins often tone this sky blue color (and also "pee" yellow) perfectly naturally....Mike p.s. the second...
I am sorry to say that I prefer the look of the higher-contrast Heritage photos. That said, I'd have to see the coin in hand to be sure, because...
I do.
I like the coin, but the toning doesn't appear natural to my eye. Of course, I'm only going on a picture, and I'd very much like to see the coin...

Specimen strike you say? I've seen a few prooflike examples, but a specimen strike? Hmmm..... Sorry, can't help you. But I am VERY interested...

RLM is 100% correct here. Where I live in Florida, we are lucky if the humidity outside is less than 90%. However, in my air-conditioned house,...
Pretty for a toned Peace dollar!

p.p.s. Eduard, you really should consider buying a copy of Wright and/or Noyes if you're serious about collecting these coins. ;)
p.s. these middle dates are a bit tougher than the earlier dates, but NOWHERE near as hard as the late dates (say beyond 1840). Unlike the...
