I was looking for a thread on toned coins, but I couldn't find one so I decided to start one. You can post pics of any toned coin, whether it's U.S or foreign, just any coin that's toned. I don't have many , so I just decided to post one I found while roll hunting.

Wow those are really nice. I usually don't see wheat cents with toning.

You really can't see the toning from the scans

You can't really see it that well in the scan, but the left side of the obverse (from the rim to about the "B: in liberty) is bright blue. The rest of the obverse is an interesting orange & purple rainbow-like color. So do toned coins like these actually carry any kind of premium?

I'm not sure, although on ebay, people seem to pay a premium for any kind of attractively toned coin. Just my opinion. BTW, nice coins, everybody.

Those are really nice BadThad, any idea what caused the toning? Here's one of my toned wheats. There's some nasty white crud on the bottom of the cent, any idea on how to get rid of that?

Love the toned coins! Some nice cents here and I bet that SLQ looks even better in hand.

Very nice, acidic1. That 1964 quarter's a proof, right?
