    It won't mess with the color, Paddy?

    It may just have to live the way it is. I think it's destined for the 7070.

    I neglected to check this seller's negative feedback until I had eagerly clicked on the $15 Buy-It-Now on eBay. Some folks think he artificially tones the coins.

    This seems like a crazy business model, if true. Why take a perfectly fine coin that is certainly worth more than $15, expend effort on toning it, then sell it at a loss?

    I don't care, it's darn nice and I like it. So there!

    I'm really bad at coin pics. This is a gold toned Peace Dollar I got for $12.00

    I know this isn't a toned coin thread...these (and my other post) are some of my more interesting under $50 purchases.

    And a Peace Dollar with interesting toning that was $ 22.00. (And, once again please excuse my poor pic skills)

    If you like it, then it's worth it. At least to you.

    I just picked up an item which I'll add to this thread shortly. I have NO IDEA of it's market value. But it was worth every cent I paid for it to me.

    By the way, I like it too. I'll have to check some other buffalo nickels to see if the mark between the tail feather and the neck is part of the design or a die crack.

    (Edit - I just saw the 37 and saw the same mark, so it's part of the design,)


    I get a bit focused on Early Large Cents and forget other coins at times.
