[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 3176491, member: 73995"]There are many battles that you can find in the Archives of CT. Probably keep you reading for about a day, on this very subject of Artificial Toning and Natural Toning. There are patterns that are made under normal circumstances that your coin does not poses. I would look up some of these discussions. They will surely help you learn to spot a nicely toned coin compared to an altered coin. Here is one that I put away about a year ago. A little less extreme than yours, but still fits into the altered category. This coin probably had something spilt on it to produce its pattern. It is much more colorful than I am presenting it, but I thought that surface conditions meant more to this subject than color.[ATTACH=full]817531[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]817532[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
