<p>[QUOTE="xtrmbrdr, post: 630240, member: 17193"]While I'm certainly no expert on toned coins, sometimes I see things that blow my mind. I've looked at a lot of AT coins on eBay and feel like I'm getting better at spotting AT coins. So when I saw this one, I instantly thought AT, mostly because of the recent date, this coin seems to have more toning than coins 100+ years older. The colors don't seem way off, but they also don't seem to be perfect either.</p><p> </p><p>[ATTACH]51403.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]51404.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p> </p><p>I don't want to fool anyone, this is a graded coin, by PCGS!</p><p> </p><p><a href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2714&lot=2592" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2714&lot=2592" rel="nofollow">http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2714&lot=2592</a></p><p> </p><p>So?
