[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 2118073, member: 26030"]The best way to collect toned coins is to try to find them near guide. For example I bought this entire 1962 silver proof set for $25 from an eBay dealer. [IMG]https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1962_ProofSet_IP_O1.jpg[/IMG] Cut out the toned Lincoln Cent ... submitted to PCGS ... and got the ultra rare PR68BN grade (it's one of I think only 3 PR68BN lincolns graded by PCGS in the entire Lincoln series. Here is the TrueView photo. [IMG]https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/TVBlack_1962Linc_PR68BN.jpg[/IMG] So subtracting out the silver melt on the other proof coins. I think this monster cost me about $10 for the coin (plus slabbing and photographing costs). It's a radioactive beast ... [IMG]https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1962_SlabO.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
