[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1409418, member: 26030"]Hey BRG, yes I totally agree my attempt at an "objective" system is ultimately subjective. Toning is like music ... everybody likes a different song! In any case, at least I made the attempt to pull all these beauties into a single place ... at that point you can make your own top 100 list!!! This website is really ultimately more of a thought experiement rather than an end-all be-all of ranking ... it's really ranking as I see it using a system I devised ... whether it's good or valid is another whole question!! It's kind of the same thing in a Miss Universe contest ... everybody has their own favorite!! In any case, it's fun to look at a bunch of toned coins and ask yourself the question ... what qualities am I looking at when I make a personal determination that I like one coin more than another! Then try to objectify that thought process as much as you can. It's an interesting endeavor[/QUOTE]
