Nice dimes. I have a few toned examples in my type set.

Very nice colors. Love every one of them.

Truth be told, my circulated dimes look more dirty than toned.

Following pics are from the archives and apologies in advance for terrible photography skills.

Mercury:
The 1916-D is slabbed and an AG-3

Roosies:

Edited to properly align few pics

@Eldorado9 those are some Beauties!

@cointime That 64 dime is outrageous. Where/how did it acquire that toning? Any thoughts? Sulfur infused packaging perhaps?

Those are all very attractive.
VERY nice👌

Great question. I purchased 2 different sets, one of them pictured below. I was checking the Roosie on the other set for FB and noticed the really pretty reverse toning and the OBV was only lightly toned. The obv has some light hairlines on the cheek probably from the plexiglass. I took it out of the holder and left it set in the safe face up for about 6 months or so it seems like. I noticed the toning developing then eventually sent it into PCGS

Great little display! Love the addition of the stamps in there. Very cool.
