    Here is a Wheatie I found in a roll. I know the pics arent the best but can anyone tell me an approx grade and maybe if the toning brings the value up a bit? Thanks everyone!:smile

    Nice but not unusual,

    It's nice but not very uncommon,
    We find them often with this much toning - look for the ones that have most of the entire surface toned in several colors then you have something. This coin appears to have a spot toned in the interior but the ones that really stand out are the ones with concentric rings of color starting at the rims and working it's way inward - those are the gems.

    It has a nice blue color. Try using GE reveal bulbs to get out all of the color when taking pics.

    Also, get a little further away with your camera, and rest the camera on a book or something if you do not have a tripod:)
