The auction stated

"Pair of 1788-Dated Massachusetts Coinage Restrikes by Evans. Red Uncirculated. Breen-972/973.

A beautiful 1/2 Cent and Cent pairing with mostly orange-red surfaces. According to Walter Breen,

these were struck sometime after WWII by Springfield, Massachusetts coin dealer Henry Evans.

Examples are scarcely seen and seldom offered at auction."

Here's one of my toned Indians. I like the spectacular colors of yours, but the subtle tones of this one are also very appealing to me:

beautiful

It's pretty enough to be drool-worthy in the photo.

Thanks

Here's another from my type set

Nice!

Is that one a proof?

Thanks

Na, its one that is in my 7070 type set, maybe MS64

Its much prettier in hand

So guys let me in on how you make these tone? I mean, the first dollars have beautiful toning and they just aren't that old. You have a technique to make these tone faster? Let me in on it...

While there are many coin doctors out there turning these ASE's into crazy wild toners

there are many natural toned Silver Eagles that are truly beautiful.

I imagine that since these are .999 silver they will tone quicker and more than Morgans or Peace dollars.

But, this is only my opinion

Maybe that would explain why the Mexican Onza's tone so strongly as well.

Who like them

I'll start with some ASE's

Post any toned coin, if you have them
