Before the fire department was told not to spray water inside the vault itself, they did and thus we had natural toning effects from super heated to super cooled copper and silver. Now the Manager of the Bank Purchased the Copper that had been affected from the bank and I purchased his estate over 20 years ago, and never went through the boxes, until about 8 months ago, I have about 800 pounds of toned wheat&#039;s and I am only on box 7 out of 18....I never know what I will find as I pick through them a little each day! These coins have been just as they are displayed in the photo&#039;s for almost 7 decades. To make sure I was properly describing the coins I am selling I called PCGS and NGC and told them the back story and sent them the Documentation as well as some sample coins from the estate. I was told by both grading company&#039;s that a coin that was not deliberately altered by a human but instead was altered due to circumstance would be considered as a &quot;Naturally&quot; Toned Coin. AND Therefore the coins from this bank fire are considered to be and CAN be described as NATURALLY TONED!</b></font></p><p><font size="4"><b>Yes they are quite unique and it was all about one variable.... the water and Steam and how it hit the coin to super cool the Patina on the Gem BU coins in the Vault and Safety Deposit Boxes.</b></font></p><p><font size="4"><b><br /></b></font></p><p><font size="4"><b>Best Regards,</b></font></p><p><font size="4"><b>Brian</b></font></p><p><b><a href="https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11051.m44.l1139/7?euid=d97d4f21a25d4c25a2309d880c7f7baf&amp;bu=44124837657&amp;segname=11051&amp;crd=20200810080754&amp;osub=-1~1&amp;ch=osgood&amp;loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fmessages%2Freply%3FM2MContact%26item%3D283971065391%26requested%3Dbdoubrava12012%26qid%3D2127025813018%26redirect%3D0%26self%3Dtonkawa.bill&amp;sojTags=bu=bu,ch=ch,segname=segname,crd=crd,url=loc,osub=osub" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11051.m44.l1139/7?euid=d97d4f21a25d4c25a2309d880c7f7baf&amp;bu=44124837657&amp;segname=11051&amp;crd=20200810080754&amp;osub=-1~1&amp;ch=osgood&amp;loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fmessages%2Freply%3FM2MContact%26item%3D283971065391%26requested%3Dbdoubrava12012%26qid%3D2127025813018%26redirect%3D0%26self%3Dtonkawa.bill&amp;sojTags=bu=bu,ch=ch,segname=segname,crd=crd,url=loc,osub=osub" rel="nofollow">Reply</a></b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
