<p>[QUOTE="buddy16cat, post: 1514501, member: 37356"]I know what you mean, the red color in person is nice on this coin and I popped out that year from my Whitman album and replaced it with this one. This scan on the other hand, is not very attractive. Holding it to the light and using my camera or webcam might do it justice. It isn't really great, but for a roll find it is nice. It is true though that toning only increases value if someone is willing to pay a premium for it. I know dealers only pay melt or below melt for silver roosies. What do I believe my nicer roosies are worth? I really don't know, that is why I asked. I would have to put it up for auction to find that out really but have noticed people tend to pay more than I would for silver on Ebay because I can get a good deal at my local pm dealer. I don't really know much about toning though but from what people say here, it is highly subjective and there is no set value outside of how much extra someone will pay for it. Best put it up for auction starting at melt and see if someone will pay more. Someone will pay melt for it. I am certainly happy with melt since I just found 16 roosies in three bank rolls, 9 in one roll. That certainly isn't common today even though roosies are pretty common. As far as threads being created, you really don't have to read all threads if you don't want to read it. Roosies generally only sell for melt and are all common, common enough I found about 9 in one roll of dimes, and 18 total in 4 rolls of dimes alone the last few days.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
