OldWest Valued Member United States 126 Posts	Posted 04/07/2016 3:17 pm My SBA dollar seems to have some toning. Perhaps there is another way to describe the color. The word toning might not apply. Is this coloring on an SBA desirable? Report this Post to the Staff

denco7 Pillar of the Community United States 2543 Posts	Posted 04/07/2016 3:35 pm Since there is no silver, it is not toning in the numismatic sense. It is nickel over copper, so it is basically nickel patina, the kind you see on many nickels. I like the way it looks and save nickels I find with this heavy patina However it does not add to a coin that really has no intrinsic value to begin with. Report this Post to the Staff

I am impressed with the shots you all take of your coins. Report this Post to the Staff
