[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 2715071, member: 17557"]I know that post wasn't directed at me proper, but personally, I would've been a believer with simple before and after pics where the coin pictured in both sets of pics was clearly the same, no need for me to breathe over the shoulder of a coin doctor. If a thread was posted with a toned coin that appears NT, and the OP asked "NT or AT?" and after he got his responses, he posted a picture of the same coin that he took hours/days/weeks--whatever period of time--before he worked his magic and said, "well this is the same coin before I worked on it"--if that happened I'd be sold and I wouldn't look at toned coins the same way again. I've yet to see such a thread, and [I]every time [/I]someone says that they can tone coins, and they back it up by posting results, it is [I]always [/I]the obvious AT examples akin to the ones I posted earlier in this thread. This is not to say I haven't seen plenty of posts of people posting before and afters of coins that had toned overtime in a Dansco, or in an envelope, or in a drawer, or on a windowsill, all after considerable amounts of time. Sure those exist. But I cannot recall a post, on this forum or elsewhere, where a coin doctor claimed to be able to tone coins, and gave examples of his work where it didn't turn out to be obvious AT coins. At the end of the day, I get it. I understand your point, and I'm buying what you're selling.[/QUOTE]
