One hundred U.S.dollars? How good a friend is he/she? IMHO,WAY too much. I am no pro in toned coins but they do not look like NT to me. John1

Both coins are obviously circulated and neither is naturally toned, value = 15 cents.

Whoa, 100$ - that's a friend? save your money. You have the same type, color toning, and in the same area especially on the reverse on 2 different types of coins - very suspicious.

&%$#+\?! NOooooo! Those are clad or cupro coins. There is ABSOLUTELY no premium on those coins, only personal appeal. Your friend has read your eagerness, some friend...
This kind of "toning" is poor storage, environmental damages, they will continue to discolor into an ugly gray/black and possibly bed/black.

Quote: a friend of mine has a lot of tone coins Sounds like he learned how to artificially tone coins in his spare time!

As the saying goes; what a friend's good for? neither coins are naturally toned! he must have toned them specially for a toned coin enthusiast  I see finger prints on 59 5c in front of the profile. sorry your 10c is worth 10c ,Nickel is worth 5c = Net $0.15 if you like those type toned coins you can do it yourself, just need practice and patience!

A fair trade would be .15; what you've got there is common pocket change.

Even offering them to you for $100 is deplorable.
