I personally care for very few tarnished toned coins - especially silver. Some are very beautiful, but the contrast with the dark areas, to me, just looks ugly.

I prefer the blast white one for eye appeal.

I guess it takes all kinds.

I would be careful with purchasing this coin. There is a good chance that it has been tampered with. Also, one must take into account that slabs can be counterfeited too.

That is the one problem with slabs. One cannot take out the coin to examine it first hand without making the opened slab obsolete.

IMO anything that white,that old has been dipped. No question about it,that is why I prefer toned coins. Add character to the coin as well as having a piece that hasn't been dipped with(in recent years anyway). IMO its so white that is makes the coin ugly. Nothing going on with it.
