<p>[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 25503375, member: 101855"]I am not much of a "toner collector." I have rarely paid a premium for it, which is why I don't have many "toner" coins. Too many pieces are like the Morgan Dollars that are shown in post #24. That post is a primer on what to look for if you want to avoid artificially toned coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is my favorite toner in my collection. It is an 1892 Columbian Exposition half dollar. I will guarantee you that this one is natural. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1632968[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this from a dealer friend 30 years ago. It is in a PCGS MS-63 holder. He had sent it in twice to get it in an MS-64 holder, and it failed both times. I paid $125 for it when the going price for an MS-63 was about $75. So you might say I buried myself, but for me the coin is pleasing to the eye.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
