Ike Dollar Collectors - 1971 S ANACS PR67CAM FS-015.8 DDO

I have had this great coin for about two years now but ever since I scored it on ebay I have been focused on its toning around the rim. I like toning but I find the toning distrative on this coin. I wish I could attach a picture but the toning does not come out too well. Let me describe it.

Obv. Toning is heavy only on the rim but in a speckled and streak sort of way at 7-11 o'clock and light at 1-6 o'clock
Rev. Toning is heavy only on the rim but speckled and streak sort of way all the around the rim.

The colors in the toning from a foot away looks black but up close has some blue and orange.

What I am wondering is should I leave it with its album toned look or send it to NCS to remove the toning? If PCGS would grade the FS-015.8 I would definitly leave it alone as I think the toning will not stick out as much with thier holders but with the white border in the ANACS holder it sticks out making you focus on the toning and not the coin.



I was able to get an example of the type of toning on the coin. Just picture this around the entire coin.

    I will send this to the top with this question.

    Anyone know if ANACS, NGC or NCS will be at the Long Beach Show this Sept 9-11?
