Toned ASE

[Zoins]

A little while ago someone posted a pic of a slabbed ASE that was toned with rainbow colors (like it was in a nuclear reactor?). Can someone pick out the thread? Also, if you know what I'm talking about, where can one find coins like that?

Many of the more dramatically toned and NGC or PCGS certified ASEs are, in my opinion, artificially toned.

[Zoins]

I'm pretty sure it was artificial, but I'm still interested in finding some.

The coin belongs to Braddick. You may talk to him about those types of coins. He has some cool toners.

[Zoins]

Thanks. I'll drop him a line.

I have posted a few and here are a few

or was it this one?

 

[Zoins]

Are there any dealers that specialize in coins like that? Where can they be found for purchase?

I wouldn't touch that one with a 10 foot pole.

I've got another pretty wild one on eBay right now.

Very nice but not the specific one I was thinking of.

That's the one I was thinking of! I was under the impression that these were "manufactured" and wouldn't be too hard to come across but now I'm thinking I may have been mistaken. I would love to find something like that.

Nice. That's on my watch list now.

The coin itself may or may not be, but one thing I will tell you for sure is the photo's hue/saturation has been enhanced...Mike

Whether the coin was or was not created in a lab so to speak......the price tag for a coin like that would still be substantial in today's market......be prepared to pay a very heft premium for colors like that on an ASE. You could probably pic up a nice bag toned morgan for the same price and be assured that it's mother natures handy work
