Paulus Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Following on from the popularity of the 'Let's see your copper coins ...' thread, and the recent postings on my question concerning the prevalence of toning in English milled silver, I have started this thread to gawk at pics of toned English milled silver. Anything goes, but attractive natural toning is preferred! Artificially rainbow toned US slabbed tat is specifically discouraged!!Here's a few of mine to get things startedMy avatar coin, and one of my first (lucky) eBay purchases 3 Quote
