<p>[QUOTE="halfcent1793, post: 2744597, member: 86853"]It's been interesting reading this thread. Pretty obvious from it that it's all a matter of taste. Do you like coins that are more colorful, even if that means they are corroded (it does). Years ago "blast white" was all the rage for silver. Now the rage is colorful and "attractive" (to someone) toning. Do we all agree on what's attractive? Of course not. I'm sure at some point brightness will take over again. The early copper stuff I collect is nearly always toned. If anything is too red we look at it with suspicion. It was not always that way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
