<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Sims, post: 1968425, member: 59688&quot;][USER=20480]@ToughCOINS[/USER] he means a beautifully toned coin and an ugly toned coin not having been dipped or cleaned in any way. The nicer coin will have a premium and the ugly coin will probably sell for closer to MS64 money just to move it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a good example of the value difference between beautiful and ugly albeit they are not the same grade. Both are 1891-O dimes. Both are in PCGS holders, the first one is graded MS-63 CAC and the second is MS-64. The MS-63 was priced higher than the MS-64 because of the toning and CAC validation. Strike quality is about the same for the pair.</p><p><br /></p><p>MS-63 CAC</p><p>[ATTACH=full]348762[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>MS-64</p><p>[ATTACH=full]348763[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
