[QUOTE="imrich, post: 7872170, member: 22331"]Thank You for the video, which I agree the "toning" does not detract from original luster, but is merely a chemical alteration of surface molecules. I believe this alteration would be unseen in a MINT STRUCK coin, as delivered from the mint. Thus, it is legally (i.e. as would be argued in a legal action) Almost Uncirculated, as I'd need to declare as a Jurist. The scratches, gouges, dings, are greater than on some CACed AU58 coins in my collection. I have tens of thousands circulated 90% silver coins picked from bullion dealers bags during the 1950s-60s. It is a beautiful toned coin, as I have prepared, sold raw, at their request, to some of my past customers. My coins however were at least virtually unflawed MS64 before specialized toning. In my opinion, that it just a pitiful example of "market grading/dealing"! Hopefully, no offense intended/taken. JMHO, worth at least that paid![/QUOTE]
