    I am not trying to sell you on anything except that toning and cleaning are worlds apart. You can like all the coins you want and hate toning, but that does not make all toning deliberate.

    How's this for a gator eye :watching:

    Although technically it should be called the "nictitating membrane"-eye but hey, "alligator-eye" just sounds better :D

    And this one I named "Jedi Mind Trick". It sat at the bottom of a plastic coin tube with a seam crack which became the "lightsaber" :D

    (The "lightsaber" is more colorful in hand. I should get better pics) 20151109_084223_opt.jpg
