<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 4842454, member: 100459"]After reading each entry, I am still in a quandary as to the purpose of toning a coin. Are coins that have been toned, lose their value. I'm sure there are collectors that will buy toned coins for a specific purpose. I am also sure that dealers will buy a coin that has been toned. However, purists will look a toned coins as "damaged goods" or "detail" coins. I have a few coins that have a small amount of toning around the edge of a few of my Morgan dollars. I didn't think much of it when I first looked at them, but I became concerned. As many collectors do, I buy/acquire coins that I like and have very little toning on them. I think I will go over to my collection of "Toned" Morgan dollars, to see what the damage is on the coins. I will not sell them until the value of Morgan dollars reach "Market" prices. Please, please, let us know... Are toned coins worth more?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
