<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 718121, member: 4552&quot;]Much truer than you think. At coin shows I&#039;ve found that there are many dealers that can not tell if a coin is AT or NT. And as one dealer was telling me if you think about it, really what is the difference. If you find a coin that was sitting somewhere for a few years and the invironment toned it, that is supposed to be NT. If <b>you</b> put that coin there and then left it there for those years, now is that AT? If someone else put that coin there and it toned, is that NT since you didn&#039;t put it there? </p><p>As for my preferences when it comes to coins. I&#039;ve been collecting coins for a long time. I collect coins that look like they are new or as close as possible. This means I have no toned coins of any kind and never will. A few I came accross I dipped in a solution to get it back to looking like a coin. My way of looking at toned coins is like taking a new car and hand painting it with a brush and stripes and dots. </p><p>Just me but I really don&#039;t like painted or toned coins. Just not normal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
