Toned Coins

[Paulus 1,942]

This topic is mainly about whether toning adds to the eye appeal and/or value of any of the coins depicted here, which will inevitably be subjective! I am going to post a few pics of my favourite toned coins, and all comments are welcome as far as NT/AT, eye appeal, grade, authenticity etc!!

My avatar coin first:

Another toned E7:

I want to see other members' NT examples, I love them all! I have more examples to post, but I will wait to see if there is interest from other Forum members for this topic

I suspect there are members like Rob and Nick who could post very impressive examples! And Peter's collection must be impressive but I have yet to see any of it! Come on everyone, toned coins with pics please! ... and Neil of course, what is your most attractive toned coin you have for sale in your opinion?

Because I DO like a bit of NT (assuming that is what it is!)

Another then for comments and debate!

I am loving that shilling!

It's a bit similar to Paulus' offering, but most of my best NT coins are scans, and as you know, scans do for toning what Cameron does for the welfare state...
