<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1331934, member: 31533"]I don't think that it shouldn't be addressed or that intentionally toning coins should be permitted. I just think that the language as written is too all-encompassing, and can inadvertently hurt some people in the hobby. I don't at this time have an alternate way of putting this, but think of this: perhaps someone inherits a collection, where some coins are toned and tries to sell them. Perhaps this person is then, for whatever reason, said to have done that himself/herself, where it was not proven, and as a result, others in the hobby or industry then think badly of the person. I don't like that happening. It's also possible (even if not "likely") that those coins could be prevented from being sold as they are. Who knows? Will this also then say that any coin being sold that has this and the provenance is not clear that it happened before a certain date, then be downgraded?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
