A few of my new favorites.

@asheland,
EVERYTHING! I've ever seen you post shows excellent eye appeal!
I have been thrilled with these toned half dollars every since the Trueviews posted recently.
A few that I like.

In my opinion this has great eye appeal
Maybe not quite what you were looking for considering you started with an MS65... but this is one of my favorite large cents I have, even among the MS60-64's in my collection ![:) :)](https://forums.collectors.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)

When I sent this coin in, I thought for sure it would of hit, at least, the pf. 66 or 67?
Another thing is PCGS gave it a BN designation. I see RD. Regardless, It has eye appeal!
1968s PF. 64 BN

Even when it was struck I do not believe it was blast white...
That acquisition was for the date and the nautical image. Cheers, RickO

That’s an excellent example!
I do love the color on mine, I had an AU example a few years ago, got tired of it, wanted one in MS, sold it and just waited for a better example to come along.
This one showed up about 2 months ago, my patience paid off!
