    Best to sell it raw as the toning looks artificial.

    Well, it contains 0.77 oz of silver so it has some value. Beyond that, not really. Those coins have had help - not natural looking at all.

    "Is there any value to circulated toned Peace Dollars?"

    If you remove the premiums associated with key dates and semi-key dates, and just look at a regular circulated Peace Dollar, there is certainly room for added value based on toning and eye appeal.

    I'm rarely a fan of colorful circulated coins, preferring them to be dark in color. The first coin you linked sold, and it redirected me to a different coin. Both have some speckled toning which doesn't sit right, and on the second coin in particular, you can see dark outlines of the devices, making me think the coin was likely cleaned before acquiring its toning. It's not a coin I'd be interested in. https://ebay.com/itm/1923-S-VF-Peace-Silver-Dollar-2-LOTS-OF-RAINBOW-TONING-/382960301969?oid=382960302239

    @dalladalla69 .... Welcome aboard....The original listing closed as sold... the redirected listing appears to be the same coin, same seller....even if not the same coin, it is the same artificial tarnish.... Cheers, RickO

    Some folks around here like toning but I'm not one of them. Matter of fact I don't personally know any collectors that like them. Never really understood how a toned coin can still be considered MS. (That's not the way they came from the mint) To me they are all environmentally damaged and should be labeled as such. A circulated coin may have some "natural" toning but I don't like those either and are worth much less than an undamaged coin.
