[QUOTE="kanga, post: 2327039, member: 9270"]I'm looking to open a new collecting area for myself. Capped Bust Quarters (1831-1838) - Variety 2, has caught my eye. Why? -- It's a short set by the Red Book listing (10 coins) -- It's affordable for me in [B]XF[/B] So I took a look at the eBay listings. Most of the coins there are darkly toned; I'm looking for medium to light toning. Are the ones on eBay the norm with respect to toning? [B]OR[/B] Is it a dumping ground for darker coins? [B]OR[/B] Is it poor photography? I'm going to take a look at Heritage archived coins and do a comparison.[/QUOTE]
