DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 03/09/2024 11:07 pm This type of toning is commonly found on coins in the '67 red box sets. Over time the flocking in the case can cause some quite ugly toning. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 03/09/2024 11:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sten986 New Member Canada 13 Posts	Posted 03/23/2024 2:27 pm I have to disagree with the other comments on this item. I find this coin very visually attractive. From an artistic point of view its stunning. Almost as if the toning mimics a wolf howling by moonlight. post edited- by moderator See rules Report this Post to the Staff
NumisEd Pillar of the Community United States 5177 Posts	Posted 03/23/2024 3:02 pm I don't think the coin is ugly. A fitting description would be: "The Ice Queen and her Howling Wolf". Report this Post to the Staff
