On a whim, I just picked up the following 1883 Liberty Seated dime as a possible upgrade for the one currently in my 7070 album:

Nicely-Toned-1883-Liberty-Seated-Dime
Nicely-Toned-1883-Liberty-Seated-Dime

Nice detail, some minor dings and some really nice (in my opinion) toning. Just curious what people think of the toning, though. Natural? Result of a blowtorch? Attractive? Ugly?

I don't see a thing wrong with this coin, and I'd be proud to own it.

Absolutely beautiful! I agree, I'd be happy to have it. And I'd have to say natrual toning...

that bluish tint really looks nice, and I'm not usually a fan of toning

Heh. I didn't realize it before, but I actually bought this dime from a fellow CCF'er, nwc coin. I didn't even pay attention to the name of the seller on ebay -- just the coin, the price and the seller's feedback rating...

I'm happy to report that nwc coin is an upstanding member of ebay and a fine addition to this community. Plus, he has some really nice coins for sale!

Nicely toned is an understatement.
