There are exceptions to what I just said, most notable are whitman albums which had high sulfur content and toned really thick over the peripheries and lettering. But if you understand that type of toning you can make the appropriate exception. As you can imagine, a slow drawn out process of air transfer will have some unique toning characteristics that can not easily be repeated in a hasty manner.</p><p><br /></p><p>Leadfoot: I believe that with years of experience and if the coin pictures are good enough, you are able to tell if the toning is real or not. I always have believed that. Doesn't mean it is possible 100% of the times but in most cases. Luster, well that's a little more difficult. Even when the coin images are enhanced, it is that much more easier to see the AT colors on the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
