I'm usually not a toner collector, but paid $53 for this set. The higher denominations (top row) are all copper-nickel while the bottom row are all bronze. These are proof coins that are normally sold in sets of 8. While toned copper-nickel tends to be rare, it seems like the colors here are plausible. Let's see what you think from these seller pics. I will update when I take my own photos in hand. Edited by 0xDA71D 08/13/2019 02:11 am Report this Post to the Staff

If the fixings to the case are heat fastened, you won't be able to do this anyway, without destroying the case. Just accept them as they are as you have to, as you should do with your wife. If you feel that you should not be numismatically married to these coins, then run ! Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 06:39 am Looks like a lovely set. Love the obv design of those Sudan coins. I had a few I had collected as a kid that I sold off on ebay a few years ago. Also in my experience CuNi toning is unusual, but I've had a few CuNi coins with a bit of toning (an Irish half crown comes to mind).
