Was offered some toned Kennedy halves. Pulled from original sealed rolls in a mint bag. I'm not an expert on the toning progression in 40% halves. Do these look naturally toned? They are quite nice. All look 65-66

Im leaning towards yes due to some of the others going terminal. These below are the nicest of the bunch. Thanks for all help!

OK, original sealed rolls IN a mint bag?

looks like they were put in a bag with egg yolks. Yes, the egg yolks contain sulpher that will do that to 40% silver coins.
This is just my opinion, but AT

Mark- wow. I looked up some of the results of the egg yolk toning and it usually yields black or brownish colors. Do you have any examples? I never heard of this before. Another thing to watch out for...

Better pics would be needed for grading.
