Not an upgrade in grade the old coin was a 66 also. This one is a BEAUTIFUL rainbow toner from Kryptonitecomics. I have put several of his coins in my sets over the years and just couldn't keep from pulling the trigger on this one. 1956 PCGS66.

Use the link in my sig line "All Dimes All Varieties" to view coin.

Let me know what you think.image Thanks for looking.

    I saw the L&C Coin April Catalog had dimes in it. Not sure if you have shopped with them already.

    Actually the only rainbow is on the obverse 12-4 o'clock. Mostly lite golden.

    Yes, that is a die crack coming thru the hair to the rim.

    I try to only use the word Rainbow when there are at least 3 vibrant rainbow colors that are easily seen.

    Although, it would not surprise me if this was listed on eBay as rainbow, for marketing purposes...

    and then repeated here in this thread. image



    It does look like a nice flashy toned coin though.

    I wouldn't call them common...like on Shield and Liberty Nickels, but I see them once in a while on both obverse and reverse.
