valdiman Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 575 Posts	Posted 07/01/2010 3:57 pm Hi.Can you take a look on pics and tell me-is this normal toning for this type of coin?Plenty of spots but on the rim rainbow toning is developing.Any chance of full rainbow? Report this Post to the Staff

I think I'm seeing some finger prints @ 11:00 oclock on the obverse. As far as whats in store for it as the discolouration continues, I cant really comment.

snaz Valued Member Canada 351 Posts	Posted 07/03/2010 2:44 pm This is very common toning for this coin. These came in those little black cases with the plastic insert. And they are well known to tone the coins inside. Sure does look good though. Where did you get it? And did you pay a premium for the toning? Report this Post to the Staff
MrCanada Pillar of the Community Canada 650 Posts	Posted 07/04/2010 01:05 am I think I have one with similar tone, I don't think they came encapsulated just in a plastic holder. Report this Post to the Staff
Stunet Valued Member United States 211 Posts	Posted 07/05/2010 2:15 pm None of my 70's era silver dollars exhibit toning at all. Some are in clam shell boxes from the mint, they are unprotected and sit in a black plastic holder. Others are in standard issue 2 x 2 coin holders. Report this Post to the Staff

valdiman Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 575 Posts	Posted 07/06/2010 04:43 am I bought this coin as a part of a lot.Didn't pay any specials.Same lot included 1$ 1973 with deep blue toning on the center.I agree with theory that is caused by original mint packing.Both are boxed(mint box is not very high quality).Maybe something to do with red material inside the box?Ive paid around $7 each.Overpaid?what do you think?
