<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 525423, member: 112&quot;]OK - let&#039;s examine a scenario. Just about everybody knows that when the US Mint sold older (pre 1950) individual Proof coins that they wrapped those coins in tissue paper - cold hard fact. Now if those coins were left in that tissue paper that came direct from the mint, and they toned - is that natural toning or artificial toning ?</p><p><br /></p><p>I wanna see which one you tries to tell me it&#039;s artificial.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now take the coin I pictured, that is a modern day Proof, Maria Theresia taler. Care to guess how it got that toning ? </p><p><br /></p><p>Amazing ! You guys are really good :thumb: Yes, it was wrapped in tissue paper. And ya know what, I bought 8 of &#039;em all at the same time from the same guy. You wanna see all 8 ?

Yet each one turned out slightly different. </p><p><br /></p><p>And that is the entire point. How toning turns out on any given coin is 100% a wild card. You <b>never</b> know what the results are going to be until it happens.</p><p><br /></p><p>So to say that just because you haven&#039;t seen this or you haven&#039;t seen that, that it therefore must be some atrificial, cooked up scheme to scam somebody out of their money - is patently rediculous. Trust me, there&#039;s a lot of stuff out there that you haven&#039;t seen - and that goes for all of us.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
