[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 4877437, member: 105098"]I mean technically, corrosion is toning or tarnishing. terminal toning may effect the surfaces of the coin.... And didn't dies rust/corrode back in the 1900s, I mean I seem to remember that as being VAM diagnostic points on some years. corroded die evidence.... This is about as dark and as thick as toning gets, I'd say this is a candidate for "terminal toning" where if you did dip the coin, the surface has been altered to a point of being lusterless. Also title says 1907, but pictures are of 1900. Anyways, it's a shame, there's a lot of detail there otherwise. looks kept and cared for, except kept and cared for improperly and stored in a harsh environment for too long. unless that's not toning at all and some sort of layer of gunk.... yuck. or this isn't pictures of the right coin, and there are pictures of a 1907 somewhere.
