<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 3732607, member: 74282&quot;]This Denarius of M IVNI(perhaps a Marcus Junius Silanus) is one of my favorite toned coins. This was from a wonderful collection sold on eBay over several months a year or two ago that went largely unnoticed but was made up of coins collected by the seller&#039;s father 70+ years ago. I and a few friends purchased several of the coins and many had similarly wonderful old collection toning. I wish I&#039;d purchased more of them.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1000835[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Another old collection coin ex RBW collection and ex Frederick Hastings Rindge collection. Rindge was a wealthy businessman and philanthropist and one of the founders of what is now Malibu, California. After his death in 1905 his house became a historical site and from what I understand some of these coins were exhibited there and at other places in the decades between his death and the sale of his collection. Once again all the coins I&#039;ve seen from this collection had some really wonderful old collection toning:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1000841[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
