Poll Question
These two coins were bought at the same time in 2007 from the RCM and stored exactly the same way. Significantly different results.

After 6 years....

No toning! They're fossils.

Will try to avoid toning (to buy toned coin).
But since the toning not on the silver surface - it is not bad at all.

I chose liking both.The toning in my opinion dose not distract from it but I sure would like to see it again in 6 more years. Mine looks like the day I bought it.
I was lucky enough to be at the mint the day before the release. I bugged the sales rep until she gave me the direct ordering phone number. She was not supposed to give it out.

I voted "Both" - I think they each have their own aesthetic merits!
