<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NotSure, post: 866953, member: 20034&quot;]Valid point.....as much as the TPG&#039;s have cracked down on toners, this is especially true of clads.&nbsp; Very attractively toned clads, IMHO, are always going to be suspect.&nbsp; I owned the nicest toned clad Kennedy I&#039;ve ever seen (an &#039;87-P, PCGS MS67...pop top at the time....bluish/gold hues over 100% of the coin, just spectacular), and I got a VERY VERY nice premium for the toning when I broke up my Kennedy set 1 1/2-2 years or so ago.&nbsp; Today, if that same coin were to cross the graders desk raw, it may not have graded.&nbsp; It is without doubt the nicest toned &#039;87-P Kennedy in existence.&nbsp; But again, if it crossed the grading table today, 50/50 at best the it would grade.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I love that SBA&#039;s toning, but again, if that hit the table, it may very well not come back gradable.&nbsp; It&#039;s too bad that was cracked out...it could be a long time till it can get back in a gradable slab.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
