<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coppermania, post: 1232556, member: 18304&quot;]I like it because toning is interesting to me. It may be a 64 deducted for the color as a technical grade. And yes, at some point it came in contact with some sort of chemical to do that and leather has all sorts of chemicals in it, you should see how leather slimes silver and eats copper. Anyway, as a rule, and one I sometimes need reminded is when it comes to any antique or coin I try to never let a story influence me. Never buy the story, just the coin! I know that the paper insert on old fatty slabs can tone up the top of morgan dollars, but I don&#039;t think they could do that to gold, so I would be inclined to think the toning happened before it was slabbed. As far as a PCGS crossover, who cares, it is already slabbed in an old fatty! Probably it&#039;s final resting place in my opinion. I suppose the seller has the price ratcheted up there, but it would be hard for me to pay more than 2Xs for it or I would think a guy might be buried in it, but being how it does match your collection pretty well and you might be hard pressed to find another one next week, I don&#039;t think anyone here would fault you for stretching out on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
