I think that nickel is beautiful! Scott always sells some nice coins. :thumb: I like blue toning, but it depends on what coins, and how deep the toning is. I know Lehigh has some beautiful blue toned dimes. The Midnight Blues Collection? Or something of the sort
I am looking for blue toners for a special "Blue" set for my fiance.... Anyone looking to unload some let me know....

Love those Maundy pennies. I always come close to buying one, but then I realize that it would be out of place and totally unnecessary. The one you posted is a George V, which are more expensive in that grade. Some of the Victorias are dirt cheap, and even some Charles II, James II, William and Mary, Anne and George I, II and III can be found for pretty cheap when they're circulated. The George IV and William IV always seem like they cost more for some reason. Of course after Elizabeth, they could no longer be purchased, so the price goes up. EDIT: It looks like the first one is 1891, so it's a Victoria. I read it wrong at first.
The dime matches these other two perfectly - I bought them all from the same seller, who cracked them all from the same mint set. They all graded NGC MS-66. I call them the Blue Man Group.
The Rainbow Blues collection of Roosevelt Dimes. This set is a lost cause for me and I will probably me selling most of the coins in this set at some point during the year. Here are a few examples. But blue toning is not reserved only for dimes. The blue toning in this Jefferson Nickel is dynamite. Enjoy!
Aw, c'mon Paul! Don't you be quitting on the set! It is a cool idea, and you have some cool coins to go along with it
I used to collect original Maundy sets in original boxes, not the individual coins. Sadly, I never got around to imaging all of them. All but that one of those I pictured came from an original 1911 Proof set. Poor pic of it, but its purpose was only to show the original issue box.
