Pictures, eh? I've sorted out about three full rolls of wheaties -- I'll try and photo the choice coins. If you know specific dates that are more valuable toned, let me know.

Toned coins just like Red and red Brown coins are subject to grade for values ,, even though nicely toned coins do have a particular group of follwers who will pay above grade value for them .

non date specific for the most part .

Ahhhh......some nice, original coins!
Although not the type of toning that would command a premium, it does add character and originality to your coins.

I find the collectible toning you refer to beautiful. I also like to collect the red, black, and copper tones.

This has become a really neat thread. Cool coins!
Here's a bizarre one, from 1999 and still in it's original gov't packaging. I purchased 2 mint sets that year and the coins started toning almost immediately (all but the pennies from the rims-in in a yellow/gold). The toning on the 2 pennies started from the centers and spread out, in a 60's kind of funkadelic way. I kinda like 'em.

There are a few that turned real dark that were called "Chocolate Cents." They are as dark as......Chocolate.
