<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 414283, member: 15309"]OK guys, here is the update. I received the coin in the mail today and after inspection, I still don't know. The coin is radically different than the seller photo which I expected and the reverse appears to NT all the way. However, the coin is much darker than the seller's photos and the rims are black. That alone is not enough to declare it AT, but it is not a good sign. I suppose that if this coin was placed in an album (reverse facing out) at a slight angle, it would explain the obverse being completely toned and could even justify the color scheme. The highest points of the coin have toned the most (violet) and the left obverse field has toned the least (yellow). Overall, the toning is deep and dark and does not appear to be AT, but something about the colors on the obverse still does not look right. Anyway, here are the pictures. Let me know what you guys think!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/1927prawColor.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Mercury%20Dimes/MercuryDime1927RawBUSmall.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>First photo is the sellers, 2cnd is mine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
