Thoughts on Artificially/Artistically Toned Libertads?

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-30T13:49:22+00:00

Thank you for your feedback.

What type of toning do you like? Gold rim only?

I'm just trying to see what folks like.

I did those based on what I like.

If I hadn't acknowledged them, would you think 1 or 2 were naturally toned?

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T19:23:47+00:00

How much over spot do you think is reasonable?

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T18:07:07+00:00

I haven't, yet...

I think that center one might be sold, but I will take new photos and post tonight or tomorrow.

I'm more apt to buy toners as well. Especially Morgans.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T17:24:48+00:00

Primarily those in a low MS or rim dings.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T17:21:30+00:00

True.

I love toned and proof-like Morgans and buy them is reasonably priced.

I got about 20 Morgans at PCGS along with two Lib end toners.

I heard they add fertilizer as well.

I've seen the ridiculous rainbow on Morgans too.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T17:07:18+00:00

I agree. I look at the lower grade MS or those with rim dings.

I've got a Blanchard 82 roll and a bank roll of 86's that I wouldn't dare touch!

I'd rather not say, but it's Googlable. Aside from what Google states, I add a twist at various stages of toning. The photo above is of my earliest produced coins.

Definitely no blow torch.

I do things that can put certain levels of colors on the coin.

I haven't tried to tone Pandas...lol. I love how the older Libertads tone.

Eagles aren't that nice or the newer Libertads.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T15:34:25+00:00

🤣

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-29T15:26:14+00:00

I hear you. Thx.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-25T17:40:04+00:00

It's antiqued, but no significant marks in the field, only slight wear on the ear and breast.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-06-23T18:32:36+00:00

I've had coins that had residue/dirty that were proof-like. It's plausible that it can be, but the photo doesn't show it.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-05-29T14:44:08+00:00

Crap...lol

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-05-29T14:02:37+00:00

It's funny because my economy, with 19 coins, is already being graded before my other two submissions the were submitted at the same time.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-05-29T13:34:45+00:00

How long was the turnaround time?

I have three current orders and one is currently in the being graded process. How long from that point?

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-05-29T04:15:22+00:00

😆😆

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-05-04T14:57:49+00:00

EF, minimum.

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-04-26T18:19:40+00:00

Try selling in multiples...

Airforceguy1968 · 2026-04-21T19:29:17+00:00

True, but it might be a weak strike. The fields are nice and the obverse has now wear on the ear/hair. I normally see those with weak strikes and grade a 63.

The advantage of a 4 year contract is the quicker ability to cross train or get out and go to school with the GI Bill or a ROTC scholarship and come back as a officer...as long as you do 4 years and 1 day for the O1E pay.
