Is this toning market acceptable?

coinbuf

As you can see this coin is in a holder and its a coin I own but I'm curious how others see this toned coin; good to go or no way. If you feel like it please expound on how you think it toned this way.

And the answer is... Questionable color bah I submitted this coin many years ago as a tag along to fill out a 8 coin voucher, I also think its very natural but back then PCGS still had a guarantee on copper so I guess they went the conservative route. Any way the vote was overwhelming in favor of natural with just a couple of no and on the fence votes. Thanks for the thoughts its an interesting coin I think.

MA but not very attractive.

asheland

Just an average looking coin to me.

TwoKopeiki

Sure, MA

TONEDDOLLARS

Looks good to me and I like the coin

U1chicago

Looks market acceptable to me.
And I’d say it has positive eye appeal (no monster but a pleasant looking coin).

Jimnight

Very acceptable.

Coinscratch

I'd buy it - How well did it grade? I will guess 64+.

Walkerfan

Yes, but I don't care for it.

DIMEMAN

Yes and I really like it!

Dave99B

Heck yes. I really like it, especially the reverse.

Looks MA to me and very happy it's not a silver coin. Toned silver makes me ill, copper not so much.

coinhack

I think it is MA and I like it.

An attractive coin that is market acceptable, RB but likely dipped in the past. The "hairlines" behind Lincoln's head are limiting the grade to no more than MS62RB.

PCGS's opinion is now in the first post.

Just a general comment re toned coins: Unless everyone is wowed by a particular toned coin, I would not pay a premium for it. I own a number of toned coins that are original. I like them all, or I would not have bought them in the first place. With a number of them, the TPGs consider the toning to be grade limiting. Depending on the series and coin, the limit is MS 64, others MS 66.

If the toning is deemed to be "too thick," the toning is considered to be grade limiting.

The above said, Morgans and moderns, like Roosevelt Dimes, seem to have their own rules in this regard.

I like that sort of look on silver (rim toning with a bit of color). On copper, it just looks a little "off". Despite that, I'm sure it's MA to lots of folks, but perhaps not to the TPGs.

I think you are asking the wrong question. The toning itself looks fine - but the luster does not. Funky.

jerseycat101

100% acceptable

Needs to be seen in hand to be honest

Die polish lines are very distracting...to me.

Interesting thought, I guess that because the QC code was used I really just keyed in on the toning. I'll have to sit down one night with it and give it another long look with this in mind.

Certainly looks market acceptable, though, if the picture is accurate, it is a strange 'golden' color, not common at all. Cheers, RickO

I wonder if the ultra-small "5" was distracting the grader.

bsshog40

I'm a little late to the show but it looks MA to me also.

I don’t see a problem with the color

Broadstruck

I've seen a lot like that as that's older album toning.

The Liberty and Wayte Raymond boards are high sulfur content and will color tone copper.

Of course you don't you crazy hound dog and neither do I I love the color regardless if it is questionable or not. I'd put that bad boy on the bay and see what the market does think. Oh, wait a sec. it has been marked QC. In this case I would re-submit for a new opinion first and possibly but, not necessarily a bath first.
