lonnie Valued Member United States 250 Posts	Posted 06/19/2007 12:39 pm Just curious, regardless as to what anyone collects, do you have a preference for toned or untoned coins. I have a ton of both and have some very nice toned Franklins, Roosevelts and Peace dollars. When I get the chance I'll try to get up some pics. Have a great one everybody!

GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 06/19/2007 12:49 pm Some I do and some I don't. If it's a solid one color tone that covers the entire coin I don't think it has as much eye appeal as a multicolored tone. Unfortunately I also can't see the true beauty as others because I am colorblind. So if I can see a tone in something I am quite pleased. I'll see if I can post some foreign coin examples that are Brass and Copper. Report this Post to the Staff
