This is Why You Should Never Tone a Gold Coin!

First time I've ever come across a gold coin that someone tried to tone, blew it and then placed it on the bay for sale. I'm thinking they tried the Liver of Sulphur approach! Anyone here ever tone a gold coin? Look at that price tag!

Absolutely gross. But I think I'm more offended by a few of their other listings that apparently did grade cleanly. I wonder if they're in the slab-gassing business, too.

 

They’d have to pay me to take that coin!

 

That coin is offered by a Jeweler. I don't think I would consider buying a diamond ring from them. Or for that matter, nothing.

 

How about using their restroom?

 

Good point. Look at what they apparently have people use for toilet paper.

 

The seller is good from my experiences. I have picked up two graded toned Morgans and both were solid coins. I would be surprised if they gassed anything. I believe they buy from local people and sell on eBay, including the details coins. Some of the prices are on the higher end (so the item does not sell) while others are fair (and they do have plenty of sales).

 

"Stupid is what stupid does" Fits this person very well, right!

 

One word.... Hideous
