I have these two toned 1965 SMS quarters (both graded last November as SP67). I think I like yours better than mine (though tomorrow I will likely change my mind).
I also have this toned SP671967 SMS quarter that has some interesting doubling present on In God We Trust.
In hand my three quarters are darker than they appear in the Post Phil True View photos.
Attractively toned SMS coins are very hard to find.

Here is another 1967 toned SMS Quarter I have. It graded SP67CAM. The first two photos of the coin were taken by Todd years ago. The third photo is the True View photo of the coin. It is one of my favorite SMS coins.

Pete - he was a great member and I enjoyed teasing him about his dislike of "tarnish". It was fun to have mutual respect for what each other collected and his consistent good nature was refreshing (wish I could be so). He will be missed along with so many other positive contributors over the years such as @Bear@MFH along with so many more.

Very Beautiful. I bet its a blazer in hand.
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
I love that quarter , fantastic appeal!

Very nice! You don't see too many of these SMS coins with great toning (especially quarters).
That's a genuine rainbow toner!
Love the colors on that one. Nice pickup.
Being more a Ricko type of collector that is not for me, but happy for you that you found a good fit for your set.

Holy Cow! That's really nice!

Dripping with luster. Blazer all the way.
If that’s not an example of eye appeal I don’t know what is!
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
Gorgeous
Absolutely breathtaking!
I don't like most toning much more than Ricko did, but I sure like that one!
Nicely selected specimen, @Catbert
Nothing is as expensive as free money.

Beautiful proof Washington buddy! You always post great eye-appeal coins.
That is very attractive!
