Ok, monster toners, rainbows, textiles, anything with pretty toning! I feel like seeing a bunch of pretty coins at the moment. My contribution is one of my only toners and one of Rick Kay's former beautys, but now resides with boiler, an awesome 20c Pattern! I just love how this coin looks! And yes, I have Rick's permission to use his pictures, it's up on my site in the gallery of Patterns, pictures provided by Rick.

It's a MS65 in anybody's holder.
Very nice first year of issue Morgan reverse. Is the obverse also toned??

coin bag and tones, the other side , unless located in a fold, will be untoned. When you have
a coin with superb and matching type of toning on both sides, it is worth several times what a one
sided coin is worth. Further a one side coin with Obverse toning, is worth more then a similar one sided coin
with toning on the reverse side.

Here's one that grades a mere MS62 but I like it anyway.
The obverse has 3 tripled stars.

I strongly disagree with that statement, especially the part about being worth several times the value of a one sided toned coin. Speaking strictly of Morgan dollars which are probably the most popular and widespread of all series of toned coins traded today, a two sided toned piece will rarely bring much of a significant premium over a piece that has attractive obverse toning only, and certainly not multiples. If the obverse color is spectacular, the reverse of the coin is normally considered a non-issue whether it is white or also has attractive color. Ther reverse color would usually be considered a small perk to the value, but certainly not make it worth multiples.
