Nice coin but don't take the grade to heart.
1998w toonies were not issued for circulation thus it cannot be graded as a circulation coin.
Does this mean NGC will grade PL 1998 toonies from the Ottawa sets as circulation coins?
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

DBM, I am aware that the 1998W toonies were not in circulation! Who knows though, give it a try may come back as MS73  . Thats actually one of the reasons I decided to purchase the coin for a very nice price, I couldn't resist. I don't understand why its in an MS slab? strange. My main concern here is that mist/fog on the coin, do you have any ideas how that happened? thanks for all the info Edited by NorthSideTy

Maybe it turned cloudy in the holder?

TypeCoin, I purchased the coin in the holder! I have no idea what it looked like before it went in. If it did turn cloudy in the holder do you have any ideas how that could happen?
Thanks

Canacoins, I would appreciate that!
The pictures really don't do the coin justice. I wish I had a good camera, maybe its a natural green fog toning on the coin?
Keep me posted. Thanks

I'm pretty sure its toning because when I shine it a certain way the colour disappears. Wouldn't condensation be seen no matter what way you shine the coin?
