I've seen it triple the value of coins before. Or rather triple the asking price. I have a few in my collection that I have certainly paid a premium for.

...all about the eye appeal...right? Exactly. It all depends on the person buying them and how they see them (good or bad). |

Some of my proofs have the aforementioned hazing and I don't see them being worth more.
But maybe the white haze will, with time, eventually turn color to lets say, a purple haze.

40% proof Ikes are notorious for unattractive milky grey-to-blue tarnish. NCC can remove it, but hardly worth it unless you expect it to grade 69-70

here is a pretty cool looking tone on a silver dollar. I saw it on the auction wall at a local coin store.   Edited by Yonatin

How can that be MS70? I know some people like toning,but that coin looks damaged to me...just my opinion of course. Some toned coins look very cool....mostly Morgan silver dollars. But that coin is damaged.  |

And it's toned like that since 2010?  Isn't that just the least bit suspicious to you? And ugly to boot. |

It sure does seem suspect that those coins toned in just 1 year, I don't get the grading thing, how can anyone grade that as ms-70, I saw the post about it not being a "real grading company" What makes a grading company legit?

That American Eagle looks like it's had a few bad days since 2010...  |

That American Eagle looks like it had a few bad minutes one day. I am quite certain it was done intentionally, at least that is my humble opinion.

the only one I feel is creditable is pcgs as most people recognize them and there considered the gold standard for grading

I agree with it being intentional too, I can't see how a year will do that to a coin. I should have gotten a pic of the back side. It has a little spot on it that looked like the front then the rest was normal.
