With all the toning talk over in the main classic coins forum, I thought this would be an interesting coin to post. These are the sellers pics, I don't have the coin in hand yet. As soon as I get it, it will go to my guy for images. Please provide a grade, and what you would pay for it factoring in the toning.   Edited by chasingtailbar

Enough chatter to limit it to MS63, I'd judge. Typically, the GSA evaluators would consider a toned coin as not qualifying for an "uncirculated" marked holder - do you know in which kind of holder this specimen was encased?

This is indeed in a regular "Silver Dollar" holder, not an "Uncirculated Silver Dollar" holder.   |

I think the marks on the cheek limit this one to an MS-63. I do like the toning though.

This got shuffled halfway down by a wall of IHC, so I'm gonna bump it. |

It's a nice looking coin and the toning is pretty nice too. Looks MS to me, I agree with 63, but not being in an "Uncirculated Silver Dollar" holder worries me. Whatever the real grade is, whether MS-63 or AU-58, I'd pay 10%-15% above retail (Retail, not list prices, I'd pay that much over what they usually bring on ebay). |

There are no AU coins in the hard cases, the AU GSA coins and other mixed dates went into the soft packs and envelopes, that look like this;  |

I see it at maybe MS-63. That reverse toning sure is nice. What a WOW coin this would be had it been on the obverse. I'm sure there's a decent premium for a GSA holdered coin like this.

MS63+ The plus for the reverse toning, pricing? I'd say it's worth $275-$345 range. Maybe a bit more if the right tone collector came along. I'd slab it in the holder via NGC/ANACS and see what happens - not uncommon but pretty enough to draw some good interest in an auction.

MS-63, it's hard to say what the value is for a toned coin, but I would guess this one's worth $325-$375.

I agree with MS-63 and likely a * if sent to NGC. Feels familiar for some reason but I might be just thinking of another coin that similar toning on the reverse.
