[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1679145, member: 22585"]Although I do not collect medals, I do collect German coins and of course, toned coins. There was no way I could pass up this stunner. This is what natural toning is all about to me. I have never seen an example where the toning appears to be painted in the perfect positions with perfect colors. Blue sky, scorched earth, orange/red fiery cloud surrounding the fighting troops, all while highlighting the leader in angelic yellows and gold. I'll let the images speak for themselves. Maybe you will see what I mean. :) Baden-Rastaff, Stadt Silbermedaille (Silver Medal) 1955 Auf den Frieden zu Rastatt 51 mm 44.05 g Schone Patina, fast Stempelgianz (Proof) [IMG]http://memberitemcdn3.coinnection.com/1000_5681c109d74f9b47d3c95a3763d02eab01515a0f0e23ba1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://memberitemcdn7.coinnection.com/1000_09d8117a11d6cfc82549cdc430d2b22b46515a0f161f590.jpg[/IMG] direct light- highly reflective surfaces.
