[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2612152, member: 26302"]Let's talk about a coin I am in the market for, an Antony and Cleo Antioch tet. If I knew the piece was tooled, no I would not pay money for it. I want a real coin, and IMHO once a coin is tooled its not really a coin anymore, more of a modern fantasy piece. Can there be grades? Somewhat. If I received this coin in a group lot I would not throw it out, but I also would not take it out to.admire it often due to knowing it was tooled. I am not picky either about grade, but tooling simply makes me hate the coin, and not want to look at it. If that is the case, why buy something you refuse to look at? Now, if someone would tell me someone could reverse this to be back to original condition, of course I would be interested.[/QUOTE]
