Thanks Acidic! All three coins are MS-64. The 1922 is awesome it has a few hits on it for a 64 but the luster and surfaces are right on par for a 65. The 1922-D is not nearly as grren as the pic looks, it is very hard to photo. It has a more golden tone on the obverse and the reverse is killer and has golden, blue green color with some very light purple coming through.

Very nice and beautiful JonS, I love them all. They are very nice examples of attractive toning. I love the blue colors on your coins acidic1 but I don't know about that bicentennial Kennedy, seems to be AT. Do you guys want to join my other topic where people don't agree much with what I write? https://goccf.com/t/44600

Simply...I read through the other post...I don't claim to know a lot about toned coins or how they got that way. I DO know what I like and sometimes I'm willing to shell out a little more cash for it weather it be NT or a real nice looking AT. I don't have a lot of toned coins, but I find over time, with them just sitting in the safe, I'm getting more and more. I have an A.S.E. that was kind of a dark ugly tone, but over the last 18 months its really come into its self. Its more of a rainbow target tone...made from the holder it was in. I think I might be able to come up with a "before and after" picture. I post it when I get it done.
