Very nice. Is it true Franklin toners are fairly hard to come by? Much harder than morgans for example?
It depends on the date, gbroke. 1958 is very easy to get nice toners. 1960 is very difficult to get nice toners, and almost impossible to get ones that look like that.
Beautifuly toned Franklin! It seems that they tend to tone with nasty blotches. It is hard to find them with great rainbow toning like this!
First off, I would've never bought any of those coins. They are all problem coins. I mean c'mon, the bell on the reverse on all of them has a crack! Love the toners guys! P.S. Rigo, did you buy that recently on the bay? I cannot recall the date but I was planning on bidding on a proof with a similar toning pattern that sold before I could place a bid.
Is there a term for a coin that has colorful toning patterns on one side, but its opposite side is blast white? I've always liked those coins... cool how localized the color is to one side; the contrast with the other side is pleasant to me.
Not really. Single sided toning is commonly found among all types of toning. End of roll, roll, bag, textile, tab, album, - you can find examples of single sided toning among all of these types of toning.
