<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 5006251, member: 15309&quot;]The toning on the reverse is what bothers me.&nbsp; First, toning of this magnitude on nickels is extremely rare and the later the dates get, the more rare it is to find these coins with rainbow toning.&nbsp; But that alone is not my problem with the coin.&nbsp; As you pointed out, it is hard to explain, but something just doesn&#039;t sit right with me.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/j9mQVrD.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The coin has what I refer to as oil slick toning on the reverse.&nbsp; Rather than these colors presenting in the way that most toning does, even the toning on the obverse of the coin, the reverse toning presents as an iridescence that makes the toning appear questionable.&nbsp; As I stated earlier, this isn&#039;t the first coin I have seen this type of toning, and authentic or not, I don&#039;t like it.&nbsp; Here is the reverse of the 1963 MS67* that I sold earlier this year.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/6ieVxr4.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Another explanation is that I&#039;m just crazy as a loon![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
