<p>[QUOTE="johnny54321, post: 760980, member: 13342"]This coin was purchased two days ago on the bid board at my local coin shop for my type set. I am pretty sure that if I were to send it to PCGS today, it would come back as AT due to the rigid standards, and it may very well be AT. I took that into consideration making the purchase.

The coin DOES retain full blazing luster, so that part of the coin was not altered during the process....so I am curious as to what your opinions are. </p><p>Pennylady: </p><p>As a Connusor of toned copper, what is your opinion on the wild color? The first picture is taken under a direct light source to highlight the luster(I am not good at taking photos that emphasize both color and luster).
