The Toning Premium Thread

I agree! I purchased a 1882S in MS66 similar to this today that I think you all will enjoy

That's quite a coin, DF. Two thumbs up from Leadfoot, FWIW.

 

Now this one I like a lot , love that textile pattern .

?$250?

 

Me too, but not for $5500!

Wish I had that kind of jack in my wallet.

 

Dan , me too . I get leery at $1000

 

Sorry folks...I paid $315 for the 1886 MS64 star so I believe leadfoot is closest

 

Is this thread going to fall off the planet now that Paul has been banned from CT??? I hope not...so does anyone have a coin they want to post???

 

Here's a change of pace:
47-s
ms66 - star

this year..

BTW, is Paul = Lehigh ?? !! .... why would he have been banned from CT ?

 

Yes....Because he spoke his mind!!
He is the thread that got him banned!! http://www.cointalk.com/t159133/

This place will suffer and big loss!!

 

Yes it will my friend. I for one don't agree that coin doctors are allowed on here or that uneducated members are allowed to defame dealers or collectors in general who have collected, dealed and have extensive knowledge in the hobby. I for one like to speak my mind and if I got banned, then be it! Poor judgment like that is not very well followed and or respected for that matter.

 

I feel bad that Paul got the boot defending me and that I was not able to at least stand up for myself when that individual slandered me on these boards (thread closed).

I am going to guess $85 on the Lincoln cent based on a complete guess.

 

MS67's go for $85 - $90, so I will guess $70.

 

I totally missed that thread,, but enjoyed the virtual fist'a cuffs, or at least what wasn't edited out... makes for fun reading. LOL'ed when DF called you drynomic's, or whatever.. <chuckle>..... couldn't understand how the poster tied you to AT product given your stuff is amost all Tpg'ed.... would have read better had he tied the tpg to an inability to determin what is or isn't AT. The thread was interesting, and as said, most of (what I'd call low yield) toning methods are readily available in a simple google search.... the demonstration was interesting also, but have seen that method before. What really should scare all toner enthusiasts is that the poster did segway into advanced toning methods... use of buffering medium and toning within accepted storage devices to produce typical toning patterns, etc.... I agree, as Eye said, and have said before, that the laws of supply and demand will eventually lead to a turn in premiums for toners,,, most of the corresponding pain will be felt by the collectors of such items, the dealers will take a hit on current inventory and decreasing margins, or even some negative margins if the turn is sharp enough.. but should come out well ahead.
I got a couple nicely toners this week btw, but not at too great a margin, and subtle tone, more accent toning than anything.... and one from Krypto himself (thanks for finally putting up a franky proof!! - and dang those last 10 seconds of bidding, I was slobbering up till then !!!!! )

oh,, what do you think of the Olath hoard ? watched a few go down this morning on the 'bay ?... you think they are getting good premiums, so-so, or poor ? I bid on one just for giggles,, I think a MS64* common date 81-s.. I went 160, it sold for 2x that.. ~320 hahahaha,, amazing..

Good to know Lehigh will be back after his stay in detention <snerk>... He's a toner marketer if I ever saw one, blindly so at times,,,,but his passion does come across as heart felt,,, provides wonderful illustrations,,, and he puts solid content behind his statments (... most of the time)

 

Silver Jefferson toner
