US Mint UNC./Proof Sets: Is Toning Good or Bad?
 Small.jpg)
First off, I know nothing about toned coins.
Now, I've been looking at some US Mint UNC./Proof Sets from the late 50s to early 60s. Some of the silver coins have toning. Is this good or bad?

I have all kinds of coins, tokens and a few medals. I'm not a big time Stack's Auction collector. I don't collect for investment or value. When I see a coin I think is neat, I grab it. I collect a few coins by year and mint, like Lincoln and Canadian Cents, Westward Journey Nickels, State Quarters, Presidential Dollars and 2 or 3 others. I have some Proof Sets and Uncirculated Sets. I've been collecting for 34 years, so I have a little bit of everything.

No I don't like the toning at all. I'm pretty anal when it comes to UNC. and Proof Sets. Grading aside, I want sets that are 100% (or as close to 100% as I can find) perfect in all ways possible.
As far as the 60s UNC./Proof Sets go, I'm not having much luck finding sets w/o toning and it looks like I may have to go that route. Which brings me to this topic.
