I therefore think it is errant to say that it "bears no resemblance to coinage in a normal state." And my other comments were aimed towards many of the toned coins that you see on the market with secondary toning (i.e. toning after an old dip). It wouldn't surprise me that what a good number of collectors call "normal" is in fact, a coin that has been toyed with in the past. </p><p><br /></p><p>Finally, to be clear, I wasn't attacking your comments that you don't like them or think the pieces are worth a premium. You are absolutely entitled to your opinion, and collecting should be about what each collector likes personally. The many distractions/side conversations are deleting the focus on this thread which I was under the understanding was about avoiding rainbow toned coins because of concerns of AT.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
