Given all the discussion lately about rainbow toned coins and the premiums that they drive in the marketplace, I think it will be fun to create a...
Yes, Nordic Gold is a brass alloy. [img] NGC MS65
Bully, I don't think the number of toned coins is increasing like you are inferring. Take a look at the serial number of the NGC Morgan in...
I found these three by looking through the Heritage Auction Catalog. I did not see any other toners of this magnitude. Do you have links/lot #'s...
