What colors are most sought after by the Toned collectors of Indian head cents? In other words what colors pull the big bucks in auctions these days? Thanks! And post your best IHC Toners if you collect them!!

    I am always happy to post a few........
    a purely blue obverse and a rose colored reverse:

    and a coin with many colors:

    Toned (old) copper is more realistic than RD (old) copper

    Green.
    Obviously, the overall look and niceness is a huge qualifier, but when it comes down to it, I have seen a nice green pull in the green even more than other colors.

    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've found that nicely toned MS pieces are much rarer than proofs, but man do those proofs come nice!

    Here are my two:

    66BN

    65*RB

    Less mintage totals in the early 1900's.

    I prefer nice blue, purple and or green IHC's in high MS or Proof. I do on occasion buy a nice milk chocolate coin with luster.
