Not fond of the way it toned. Normally you would want it to be symmetric for the best eye appeal. Gotta knock it a point for that. PR64

Huh, not bad toning

Hard to grade proofs, so no grade for me!

I like the toning. It enhances eye appeal on this coin, making you look twice at a coin that would ordinarily not merit any attention. It's a winner. PR64CAM

Ya, I agree paralize. I remember BadThad telling me once that "green happens" so when I saw an example I scooped it up

Thanks thad. It looks a little out of place in my non toned dansco though.

A quick question. These are solid alloy correct?

In 1982 the proof penny was struck with the old (copper) alloy 95/5.
