<p>[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2121088, member: 71723"]Really? Seriously? I kid you not. The very first ANA summer convention I ever went to - New York City - was it 1997? - I attended my first "Numismatic Theater" talk, NKA "Money Talks", and it was on rainbow toning and how to spot fakes. The guy, and I hope I still have the program stashed away so I can attribute it, said if you see green on a coin, it's a fake tone job. Said green cannot occur naturally, period. How can anybody take this niche seriously, whether he was right or wrong, with so much conflicting "testimony"?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
