I just got some really cool cents... toned to all colors you could possibly want 
I'm not too good with the toning premium, so feel free to counteroffer- I won't be offended at all... I just might not say yes 
I've done my best to capture the toning as I saw it under a Reveal 60W light- sometimes the angle matters to see the vibrance of the color... rotating any coin in the light will give you some great results. I'm doing my best with the descriptions, but if you still have questions, don't hesitate to ask.
$1 for shipping, and I'll add a tad more if the weight goes up- paypal (no credit cards), checks, money orders... they're all good
Now for the coins! Wooo!!!

1968 Uncirculated Cent (I don't see any wear, so a WAG would be MS65BN due to the toning)- $10
obverse
reverse pic 1
reverse pic 2
This one is quite nice- the obverse has a purple background with red radiating from around the bust. The reverse isn't as exciting- mostly purple and red with some patches of green, blue, and orange. The reverse is more subdued and pastel colored- there are also some spots.
------------------------------------
1968-S Proof Cent- $12

Great mirrors and great toning! On the watery obverse mirrors and must, gorgeous rainbow shades float- yellow, green, blue, red, orange! Not amazingly vibrant, but truly beautiful. The reverse has a small amount of red toning, but nothing major. There is some spotting on both sides.
-------------------------------------
1976-S Proof Cent- $9- SOLD
reverse pic 1
reverse pic 2
obverse
The obverse is, well, ugly. I can't tell if they're scratches or some other horrible thing, but the obverse doesn't have much going for it... there is also a small amount of haze/fadedness from around 3-6 o'clock. What the coin DOES have, however, is a stellar reverse. A bath of purple meets a small crescent of red and orange and then meets the natural, mirrory red of a proof cent. Both sides are full Deep Cameos, and the reverse is truly amazing!

1983-S Proof Cent #1- $11

This one has a lot going for it. First off, both sides are full cameos- quite possibly deep cameos. Secondly, the toning on this piece is gorgeous. Amidst the proof, red, watery fields lie tropical greens, purples, reds, and blues on the obverse. On the reverse, there is less color, with some scattered red, and a bright red/purple patch on the left side of the memorial.
--------------------------------------
1983-S Proof Cent #2- $10
obverse
reverse
This one isn't as spectacular as it's predecessor, but is still nice. On the obverse, there is a small amount of color, mostly light, pastel reds and greens, which take away most of the mirrors. The coin's strong point is definitely the reverse. On decent mirrors lies an enormous amount of color- neon reds, yellows, greens, blues, purples- you name it, it's on this coin. The reverse would make a nice sign on the Vegas Strip, if you ask me.
--------------------------------------
1985-S Proof Cent- $11
obverse pic 1
obverse pic 2
reverse
This one is different, and not your ordinary proof cent! The outside of the reverse has strong mirrors- the type you would find on a DCAM coin. Moving in, surrounding the bust, is a toned red, a deeper red. On the bottom portion of the bust, the red becomes a metallic blue. On the reverse, there is no color- it is a watery-mirrored, super frosted Deep Cameo reverse!
Bon appetit!
