[QUOTE="tonedcoins, post: 1232785, member: 25155"]I would stay away from the OPs coin in mind to purchase. I would much rather buy the 1928. The toning on the 1926 just doesn't look correct IMO and so if there is a doubt, IMO I just walk away. Gold coins do not tend to tone, even if it has some other metal content involved. In fact, there are probably a handful of nicely toned gold coins out there. This one, I believe still owned by Paul (Lehigh96) 1924 NGC graded [IMG]http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Gold%20Coins/StGaudensDoubleEagle1924NGCStarObve.jpg[/IMG] And there was one from Anaconda Rare Coins which sold in excess of $8,000.
