    I have been looking at these for some time at my lcs. I’m usually not fond of toners but these are amazing. Should I get these at this price. Thought? 106E185F-EFB0-492B-BAC5-C3D4C70ECEDC.jpeg

    If you like toners you should ship around. Looks artificial and at $79. OMG NO

    Don't worry. The silver crowd will be in to tell you what a great deal it is.

    No, I wouldn't pay that crazy price! I love toned silver and I'll pay a small premium at times but not for those! They look AT to me.

    Artificial Toning, and not really attractive IMO. I'd pay spot for those.

    Toned ASEs can be attractive (even some of the AT ones) and command large premiums. Those examples don't look very appealing to me and are optimistically priced. Could someone pay a premium over spot for them? I could see it. But it almost certainly wouldn't be $79 each.

    I think they are ugly. Not a very appealing tone.

    Thanks for the replies everybody. Right now the shop will keep them. I’ll stick with my mercury dimes at 20x face

    Bullion value to me.
    I guess some people like ugly toning, which may not be natural.

    If it were my money, I wouldn't. They're not even nice looking IMO.

    Buy 'em all! Then sell them when the price of silver is around $9. Huge profit!!!

    The problem is that these aren't even a rainbow. Why don't you show this thread to the owner of your local B&M and offer him Spot + 50c (for each airtite).

    Some people will like them while others won't. You answered your own question in your opening post. You're one of the ones that like them. I personally would question if they are artificially toned.

    In you original post you said "
    How long is some time? If your local LCS has had them awhile that should tell you that they are overpriced.

    Then you state: "I’m usually not fond of toners but these are amazing". If your not fond of toners then pass. I'll admit, they have a certain appeal but then that price is way overboard.

    Do yourself a big favor and pass. It's an ounce of silver and silver is what price today?
