<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1502271, member: 26302"]The problem with toning is they can look very different under very different lighting conditions. Also, toning is a reaction, so can be slow or fast, so it is possible that even the mail conditions POSSIBLY can affect the toning. I have seen some GORGEOUS photos of toned proofs that in hand look completely blah. But, is it a lie if the coins DO look like that under certain conditions? I don't think it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best bet is to either buy through dealers people can recommend to you that take representative pictures or only buy these in person. In person you can judge if the coin is pleasing to you or not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
