<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 689133, member: 6370"]I completely understand, though I still think toned coins, the likes of which appear brightly tie dyed with little blackening are FAR more rare than the amount I see being sold. This is an opinion I know but I don't live in a bubble and I am not JUST using my own experiences to conclude this. I wasn't about to go into a huge long list of all the possibilities that might create such a coin, but I still think they are quite rare to come about in what I define as purely natural (which seems as valid as any other)...I realize this is a personal opinion. I do understand there are all sorts of variables at play, I still think its very rare for such toning to come about in most of what would be called 'normal' conditions.</p><p> </p><p>I am also quite convinced that there is no definitive way to tell between MOST NT and AT however one defines it. I am quite convinced that defining it is a moot point since in most cases there is no way to verify beyond doubt. Nuff said from me...interesting thread though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
