I guess a lot of it is from years of practical experience. Those who were present when original mint bags of Morgans were opened are a lot more credible in their opinions than the folks who have seen them only on eBay.

Well, my experence has been, I have submitted coins to one very respectable coin grading service and they have come back with "questionable color" so I send them to another very respectable grading service and they come back graded with no problem what so ever. In fact, they have come back with nice high grades! What's the deal with that?
The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

That all PCGS graders have been around all original mint bags of Morgans as they were being opened? Oh wait, was your question rhetorical?

My point was that the PCGS grading has collective experience in all the common types of toning and no doubt PCGS has known examples of of the various types just like they do grading set coins.

My opinion is no. I will happily pay a premium for a nice bulls eye album toned anything, as it takes at least 10 years for shades to even begin to take shape, and I believe well over 30 years for the concentric rings or bands of color to begin forming which is to me "album toning". I have pieces that have been sitting in albums for over 13 years, and some are only beginning to percolate, but mildly. The primary reason for being in the albums is for protection, and I like displaying coins that way too. It is my opinion that most of the wildly album toned pieces one sees once resided in the old Wayte Raymond boards manufactured in the 1930's, 40's and 50's, likely with a moderate sulfur content. I don't think the modern Dansco (without the anti-corrosion slip case) is capable of toning coins as dramatically, but I am seeing light golds and pastel blues being formed around the peripheries. To me, album toning is natural toning.

I think it's mainly whether or not that album is stored somewhere in the state of Florida. That state tones coins.

that should be the new definition.
