<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 671374, member: 15309&quot;]While nothing about the colors or pattern immediately strike me as AT, the photos strike me as being enhanced (JUICED).&nbsp; I have seen those colors and toning patterns on Morgans before and actually have an O-mint Morgan that is similar.&nbsp; The toning alignment on all three coins is spot on.&nbsp; What I mean by alignment is the depth of the toning with respect to obverse an reverse.&nbsp; If the coin is most deeply toned at 11 o&#039;clock on the obverse then it should be most deeply toned at 7 o&#039;clock on the reverse.&nbsp; That holds true on all three of these coins.&nbsp; The colors in those photos just seem too vibrant to believe.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Morgan%20Dollars%204%20Sale/MorganDollar1899-ONGCMS653119322-01.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>This is the second post in which you asked about the originality of toning and the seller&#039;s photos have been juiced.&nbsp; My general advice to you is to stop shopping for toned coins on E-Bay and limit yourself to NGC &amp; PCGS examples only.&nbsp; My specific advice about these coins is that the seller has enhanced the photos to make them look better than they really are.&nbsp; If you buy them, you will probably be disappointed when you see them in hand.&nbsp; Additionally, the 1881-O is either very low grade and lackluster or has been cleaned.&nbsp; The other two appear to be in the MS63/4 range but that begs the question:&nbsp; why are they not in NGC or PCGS holders?</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t risk it with rainbow toned coins.&nbsp; If you want resell value, they have to be in an NGC or PCGS slab.&nbsp; The best part is that if you buy an AT coin in one of these slabs, you will still be able to recoup your money at sale time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
