1956 PD Washingtons for the A toner Dansco

SkyMan

Here are the 1956 PD Washingtons for my A toner Dansco.  I got them both out of the same Mint Set.  While many of you might prefer the D mint toner (which is more classically a rainbow toner) from my B toner Dansco set posted several weeks ago, I prefer this D mint for my A set because of the unusual obverse "reverse raccoon" (or Indian warpaint) look.

Nice

Nice quarters...many of us here are admirers of nice original mint set toners.
It's unusual for 2 coins to come from the same set to have vastly different looks like yours do, but if you say so, I will believe it.

Actually it's pretty common that P mint and D mint toners from the same mint set during the 1955 - 1958 time period have different colors. P mint silver will often tone a blue color, while D mint silver will often tone a green or red color. Here are the Mint set cards...

P Washington is in lower left position (FWIW I sent in the lower right Franklin to be slabbed and it came back PCGS MS66FBL. The Franklin in the upper left IMO is also 66FBL, but I've kept it raw for my Franklin A toner Dansco).

D Washington is in lower right position

Cool, thanks for the photos.
The dimes look nice too......as do the Lincolns.

Love them both. That Denver example is unique for sure! Still waiting to see those albums...
