<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 2632307, member: 26030&quot;]It was toned coins that got me re-interested in coins after a nearly 40 year hiatus.</p><p>And I was able to get a Digital Album of the Year award from PCGS last year.&nbsp; And have also been mentioned in numerous PCGS newsletters and promotions.&nbsp; Some of my toned coins are actually on various high level pages of the PCGS website!&nbsp; Last year my &quot;Fireball Rainbow&quot; Lincoln Set was displayed by PCGS at both the Long Beach and ANA shows, which got me another award.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do have a few tips for toned coin lovers</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Try to develop your eye to attempt to discern between NT and AT coins.&nbsp; Not always an easy task, but you can weed out a good 95% cr@p you see on ebay by developing your eye.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Try not to pay huge premiums over guide -- unless of course something sings to you as a one of kind piece of art.&nbsp; I have paid huge premiums for a few of mine, but not with the idea of flipping, but more as acquiring art -- something that I had to have.&nbsp; Only do this if you have money to spare though!&nbsp; Most of my toners I bought very close to or under guide price. But a few i went through the roof for (be selective!).</p><p><br /></p><p>3. Buy what you LOVE and not with the idea of selling for a profit later.&nbsp; Dont be a flipper, but a collector.&nbsp;&nbsp; Buy for your own enjoyment.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/coin/LincColor_MS_Poster_1040_96.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
