I admit to knowing little on how to grade the Ikes, but I like them just the same. That said, I know when I see one that looks good to "me". And I like that ones color and eye appeal.
I would get that one reslabbed with the reverse-side up!
I have yet to get ANY *(star) designation on a Clad Ike at NGC and I've sent in a few with more color than that!......'Did get one on a nice 71-S PKOK in 67*
I definitely like that coin! The toning on the reverse is simple remarkable!
As far as coming from a mint set, I think its totally possible. I have pulled those coffee colored coins from 77 mint sets and wondered many times exactly what happened to cause the toning.
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

It will go for much more than I would be willing to spend though.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

I LOVE PEG-LEG, ERROR & TONED IKES!
I think it is a solid MS66 and the color is COOL!
It could probably sell for a lot more than it did!
I don't usually go for toned Ikes, but at least that one has "even" toning.
In my opinion, Ikes are too "new" to have developed toning if taken care of properly

If I had it my way, stupidity would be painful!
