<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 838439, member: 19065&quot;]Cloudiness leads to subjectivity in response to this inquiry... if this is not due to environmental damage and is just the start of tone, some may be happy with it at this stage. Likely it will continue to &#039;cloud&#039; over cover the entire coin surface if left alone until it is fully toned. A lot of Proof Ike dollars have this sort of cloudy appearance. Sometimes it&#039;s eye appealing and other times it&#039;s not. I agree with Danr&#039;s comment as well. I&#039;m sure there will be a lot of perspectives on this question but don&#039;t assume that the coin will be worth less just because of this nor if you happen to personally dislike it or receive a bounty of similar replies against its appearance. I would also suggest that since the tone is somewhat symmetrical/ring-like around the edges that you might have better luck finding others who&#039;d be willing to buy this rather than turn away from it, but like I said, the appeal of toned coins is very subjective. If you dislike it and found this to be worthy of restoration, proper coin conservation by professionals at NCS can remove the cloudiness, but at what expense? Probably prohibitive to the value of the piece in this case. I&#039;m interested to hear what others will have to say about this topic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
