[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 941808, member: 17557"][url]http://cgi.ebay.com/1936-D-Buffalo-5c-PCGS-MS-65-Superbly-Toned-Gem-/350189324577?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item5188e90921#ht_500wt_1154[/url] In doing my daily/weekly ritual of looking through eBay for toned coins to buy/flip, I stumbled across this Buffalo Nickel. This dealer claims the coin to be superbly toned. I'm very good at deciphering what a coin will look like in hand, and have done so from crappy pics on numerous occasions. BUT I'm having a hard time seeing toning on these pics, and I just don't see how there will be any toning in hand, those photos look alright. I'll admit I see some slight blue, but I don't even think it is enough to call it toning, if you have to stare for a few minutes to see a slight difference. What do you guys think, is there something in the pics that can't be seen, or Is the seller just passing it off as toned, hoping it will sell for more? (That is my guess)[/QUOTE]
