I know, I know... it's not American, but I thought you might like the rainbow toning just the same. Not nearly as dramatic, but still attractive. Tell me what you think.

I'm going to borrow a coin image, I know who purchased the coin so I don't think he will mind but this is hands down the best
rainbow toned coin I have seen from this era....and its not US ether ;)
