@mw, looks like a nice score for you. I think that you will find a range of responses to your question, with some collectors not ascribing any increase in value due to toning, while others do.

Very pretty colorful toning! I do not think they are worth more than a couple of cents each. The toning is pretty, but it is still a 1940s and 50s Wheat cent, and a brown one too. Looks a little circulated, too. Because of that, I do not think you'll see any noticeable increase in value. |

There are far fewer copper collectors that appreciate toning because all toning reduces the amount of original red. If you had some key dates with bullseye toning, you might have some interest in those. But common 40's+ Wheats are going to be a hard sell, even with great toning. Pull a MS 67 out, and that would help.a lot |

Forget the toning. I'm trying to make out the rest of the coins in that album and their conditions.

While colorful in spots, this type of toning is too far advanced and has become ugly. You may find some buyers for the coins but, in general, us copper guys do not like this advanced toning.

At $10, it would be hard to lose anything on that. Good grief, an empty album is worth about that much!
JMHO, but keeping the set together would seem stronger than trying to find buyers interested in the individual coins, especially with a circulated set. I've seen stranger things entice buyers at shows.
