    I believe this one just barely meets the "toned" criteria.

    Nice old toned gold. :) Looks like clash marks near the 5 on the reverse and above the cap on the obverse, right?

    You are correct sir... those are clash marks, but they're nothing like the ones on my 1811 example - note the eagle's "ghost" wing in the left obverse field:

    Another incredible old gold coin. :) You can see not only the wing on the obverse, but the banner and part of the leaves... and then the whole bust on the reverse! Wow! :)

    Exactly... you can see pretty much all the outlines of the reverse on the obverse, and vice versa. It's quite an interesting coin to examine in hand. Here are my pics:

    Like a setting Sun Bob! I swear are you a magician during the day? Because you're always pulling a toned rabbit out of the hat!

    You ever notice on 1866 coins the last 6 is always larger than the other 3 digits ?
    The coin posted is an RPD -001 1866/66
    Interesting thing is this obv. And rev. Working die was used to strike both proof and business strikes.
