[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 115218, member: 705"]Would you mind posting links to the auctions you are looking at? A few tips on toned coins.....there can be real toning and fake toning----most of the time fake is called AT and real is NT.....I'm still learning how to tell them apart but if I were you and liked toning like this I wouldn't buy any untill I could better tell if it was real. The * that NGC puts on coins is for coins with GREAT eye appeal....that is total up to NGC and no one knows if they will use it or not. If the coin is AT then NGC would body bag it as fake toning....if you are talking about this coin.....

You say you have collected for 2 years so like myself (5+ year collector) am still new and learning. I would suggest 3 things..... Read read read---books on Morgan dollars since that is what you like and grading. Read as much as you can on this forum and ask questions. Read read read! A tip I have on bidding on ebay is to bring up 2 pages to the same thing......type in you bid click bid...then it will bring up a page and ask you to sign in....do that and then it will take you to another page that ask you to check you bid once more....NOW DON'T click yes....leave it right there and go to the other page you have up of the same item......just keep refreshing that page untill it gets down to about 20-30sec....then go back to your other page and hit BID....then your bid gets placed and most of the time you win and you don't have to pay some fee for a Sniper!!
