I know peace dollars are hard to find toned and was wondering if this is worth a small prem over a white one?

    Not to me, it ain't. Maybe a small negative premium...

    I personally don't like the looks of it. That's just me, though. I wouldn't pay a premium for it.

    I wouldn't buy it at a premium. But, I'm just a Colonial Coin collector. I'd buy this at a premium...

    I like it. The tone gives the coin some character. To pay a premium....naw do not think so.

    Premium for attractive toing yes. This however, is not an example of attractive toning. This toning is a neg.

    While toned Peace dollars aren't common, they are around. Most of them that are toned look quite a bit nicer than that one.

    I've got several myself, but I wouldn't even consider that one.

    You can find them with the nice rainbow crecents just like morgans, perhaps not as vivid, but they are out there and those are worth a premium, at least to me.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    I don't think anybody would pay a prem for the toning. It hardly has any tone at all.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Toning exhibited...pass. Premiums are warrented by even toning. Too much splotch for my taste.
    Under bid without a doubt.

    Subtract 10-15% from the normal asking price.

    I don't think its worth a premium.as for that colonial, that would be kinda funny looking at too many of them with that eyeball staring back at you....Ken

    While it is toned, it's pretty darn unattractive. I would pass.

    I would pass it up as tonning to me means that "moth and rust corrupt"

    Not all toning is worth a premium, even if it's natural. This 1925 Peace is an example of that.
