This dime is silver on the edges and a beautiful gold toned Roosevelt in the middle.

The Washington quarter is almost completely toned except for a little silver down at the bottom letters on the Reverse.-

The Jefferson nickel has very slight toning on the shoulder.

The Kennedy half has very slight toning on the base of the neck.

I guess, eventually, the entire coin is going to be toned.

Here are some pics of the dime as this is the one coin that really stands out in the set.

Can you take picture of the hole set? I would try to keep the set it in a dry cool area so the toning will not get ugly.

I think I read something about that type of toning. Isn't it called end of roll toning? Obviously since its a proof its never been in a roll, but if I remember correctly that is what it looks like.

Too hard to try to get a close-up and not get reflections of off the plastic with and without the flash-so here is the next best thing-

Each coin-Obv and Rev.
