We need to get this Museum alive and kicking so let me start by posting some toners of different denominations. If you have any to add...please join in the fun!!!

I will start by posting a different coin daily

"Kryptonitecomics & Collectibles Proudly Presents...another beautiful coin for your bidding & viewing pleasure....."

Truer words never spoken. I've drooled over your coins for years. Always been outbid, though. A buddy of mine got one of your Morgans last year. It's the showpiece of his humble collection. This pic-a-day thing gives me another reason to get outta bed in the morning. Thanks!

I'm not worthy...I'm not worthy.......Thanks for the compliment and I appreciate you checking out my auctions!!! I don't have anything up right now.....but I do like to sell pretty coins and key issue comics when the urge hits!!!

Fortunatley, I have a full time job so Ebay is just a play money thing for me.

I do have a pair of Toned 1957 Dimes NGC MS66 that I haven't listed...their a matched pair out of an original 1957 mint set. If you are ever interested in something in particualr just shoot me an e-mail and maybe I have something that would interest you

Sorry not trying to sell things on the forum.....just interested in meeting new coin weenies like myself!!!

Ok....today's coin is........

PCGS 1958-D MS66 FBL





I picked this coin up from Fun this year and it's one of my favorites in my collection!!!

Looks like something out of a Skittles commercial. Very nice.

That is an awesome coin...

I hope to own a Rainbow Franklin someday.

Thanks for sharing these.

-Bobby

Never thought of it that way.....and I have never tried to lick the coin to taste the rainbow

For your viewing pleasure today...let me present...this little gem:

Very purdy burdy!

For today's installment......how about a Roosie

ANACS 1958-D MS66

Today's coin is one of my favorites....it only grades MS64RB...but their is nothing ordinary about this little Indian...



Green is the rarest color of toning on copper.....and no I don't mean corrosion

Wow! You have some serious gorgeous toners!

I saw a green monochromatic IHC once, but your 2-tone is much nicer.
Krypto, do you have a nice textile to show us?

Now I wouldn't want to dissapoint.....I only have a couple.....but they're sweet coins.....



1885-O NGC MS65

I have a few toners, but nothing that can compare with these, Absolutely beautiful !!!

Rick

The Franklin and Morgan are just insanely beautiful coins. Way out of my price range but a person can dream right?

Yes they can....prior to FUN 2006 I had never spent more than $300 dollars on a coin........I have stepped up big time since then but it shows that a lot of growth can occur in a short amount of time.

Toners can be purchased on a budget and maybe I will start a thread on some of the coins and series to go after if you want a lot of color for cheap!!!

For today's coin...let me present a real bargain as proof that color doesn't have to mean $$$$$$:





This beauty was purchased off Ebay for a whopping $42 bucks!!!

Sure the picture did not do the coin justice but when you get use to looking at crappy pictures....you start to see what might actually be there!!! The coin is undergraded at an MS62..it's a sold 63*....but I just haven't sent it in for a regrade. So keep an eye out on Ebay and you can some time cherry pick some nice coins

Fantastic!! I've seen that lady somewhere before.

I'll dig out a picture of the other one for tomorrow or the next day. I have tons of Morgans and IHC's...but very few of the rest of the denominations.........you know the old saying money doesn't grow on trees

Beautiful Coins and Hey 16d, is that a seed bearing money tree you got there? If so, send me some.

How about a Carson City coin for today......

PCGS 1884-CC MS64

First of all I would like to thank the fine folks that voted for this thread and awarded it the POTW (Post of the Week Award)





Almost forgot to add another coin for today......

How about a nice Mercury Dime.....certainly a classic design and one of the most popular in US history. These little gems are tough to find with rainbow toning and normally command stiff premiums if you do run across one.

I had to photo this one at some weird angles to capture the colors...but this baby is raw. I wouldn't recommend jumping into raw toned coins right off the bat as their is just tons of Artificially Toned Garbage out there especially on Ebay.

Let's see what we can come up with for today.......how about this monster:





I have never seen a nicer Modern Proof Dime.....this coin is Neon in hand!!!!

Absolutely out of this world!

Here is another example that illustrates that you don't have to spend a fortune to get monster color! I purchased this coin off Ebay for $10 whole dollars......the picture show a completely black coin but the description described Pink/Purple etc.

So $10 was worth the chance that it might actually be a colorful coin.

PCGS PR67

Well here is a new Reverse toned Morgan I pick up at the Clearwater show yesterday...not a monster but a nice rainbow reverse....

1887 Morgan

Here is my other textile toner:

WOW! leaves NO doubt it's bagtoned.

Here's one of my cents 30 years in the Whitman folder...



I couldn't get the obverse blues to come out as much as I'd like.

A 1930 Wheatie with Red...

Pastel Fog

Pink, yellow, purple.

This one didn't come out so well, but it's purple/gold, much darker than pic. Taken directly out of a mint set.

SAE that was in a little plastic presentation box. Green.

Nice additions to this thread...Tiffibunny

Some denominations included there that I don't have toned exaples of

This is my personal favorite--so pretty!

It looks even better in hand....I have to unplug it when I go to bed at night

I have always been partial to coins that have close to 100% coverage with regards to color so this one was an early purchase for me........

Oh man, I love Franklins in general- but that one is really nice!! It is as if the full moon is slowly becoming a new moon again with that rim toning.

Yes, I bought that one a couple years ago just because I like the rim toning. The reverse is blast white:

Color Shot


Luster Shot

A very nice 41d I pick up off of eBay..

He

Those are all beauties!!! I'll have to see what I have to post.

Here are some of my new additions!all toners...... Hope the scan works...

[attachmentid=1145]Reverses..I cant seem to scan very good......
