Gunsmoke Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Link Came across this coin on Ebay - your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirohniichan Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 It could just be the scan, but I don't like the looks. I like tonoed coins that show dazzling luster underneath, but I don't like the ones that look like vibrant colors on a matte surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsmoke Posted October 29, 2002 Author Share Posted October 29, 2002 It does not look attractive to me plus since it is AT it has no value as far as I am concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmarguli Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 The color looks horrible to me. The color might as well have been put on with Crayons. Worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoot Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I had to go see my psychiatrist after looking at the scan. (Violent tendencies with a touch of masochism and depression ). At least the SOB is honest about the toning, but the nickel looks like hell spawn. By the way Gunsmoke, what is your icon now? I am blind enough to not be able to tell what has happened to that poor person's head? Is it yours? Were you artificially toned? Hoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsmoke Posted October 29, 2002 Author Share Posted October 29, 2002 Thanks alot Hoot. I am sitting at my work computer laughing and coughing thanks to your post Here is a bigger pic attached. It happened after I went into the comic forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoot Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I just fell over backwards in my chair. I am hurt, truly hurt. That poor deserves his place in Ripley's, Guiness, the Smithsonian. Has anyone tried to classify him? mutilaticus? I need a lobotomy now. A surgeon is definitely required. Hoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clankeye-migration Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Oh my God! Oh man.... do not do that again without warning... Ha! What a picture. Yeah, definite Monster toning. Nothing like a little closer look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paigow_johnny Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Yes Clank...but it's clearly AT....and has been tooled. I'm afraid that face would have to be body bagged... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenwin1 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 The coin in question might turn black in a couple of years! And I hope it does so people will stop mutalating coins like this!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braddick Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 That's a 40cent Buffalo nickel with a ten dollar price tag. If you want one just like it, PM me- I'll "make" you one and it'll be a lot prettier and for half price. Seriously. The Seller could have at least had the courtesy of using a MintState coin.
