Is this a usual toning on a 1955 mint set?

Hi all,
Just bought it and was curious on the toning of this 55 mint set.

The ones that came in the cardboard holder, did they usually have a unique toning like this one or of some sort?

Did all the 55 mint sets come this way?

Thanks
Tom

    Hey, those look great!

    IMO not all mint sets tone, and the ones that do tone vary greatly in the way they do tone.
  • Tom - that's typical toning for anything BUT a 1955 mint set - for some reason 1955's did not generally tone that way - You have something very unusual I believe - great catch!! image

    Nice set! Nothing wrong with it. If you think there is, it can find a new home with me!
