[QUOTE="GerardV, post: 2833291, member: 76329"]I'm a toning junkie and even to me that price isn't a joke, it's downright insane. The scary part is someone will probably pay it. The only way I know to protect myself from myself when it comes to toning is buy cheapish coins with cool toning. If a coin has high dollar numismatic value, I won't buy a toned version unless it's slabbed in order to avoid something with artificial toning. As a relatively new member of the coin community that's the only way I can protect myself. Worst case, if artificial toning slips past me, I'm not out a huge amount of money. A $20 Peace Dollar with fake toning is still at least worth melt value. Still, to a toning junkie like me, this coin is so coooooool....[I]hello, my name is GerardV, and I am addicted to toned coins, it's been one week since I last bought! [/I] Yet, even an unchecked addiction couldn't get me to pay that crazy price.[/QUOTE]
