Better pics needed (obverse and reverse, camera straight on). Also, don't hold the coin like that; you'll get fingerprints all over it. Hold it by the edge. Shot in the dark, going by the obverse alone, it might be MS63, which would put it in the couple dollars range for retail value.
I certainly could be wrong, but have the feeling we're looking at an best AUish coin. It's hard to (for me anyway) to get a proper impression of the surface conditions.
Toned washingtons aren't really sought after unless they are gems, so no real premium, cool though, nest color. I'd like to see better pics and a pic ov tge reverse.
Of course.... but the actual grade may still be important to the young gentleman. Perhaps he will post better representative photos when able.
Yes, it does appear to be a 1960 quarter with toning. The coin looks to be AU, and the toning is attractive but not really unusual or exceptional. Silver value is $2.86, so your coin is probably worth $4 or $5.
Did you find this in change? Cool. Mint condition doesn't mean no toning, it would refer to the absence of any wear. If you see flat places or scratches, it would most likely not be MS or Mint State.
I bought it at a coin store for $3.00 out of a 5 pound bucket. I don't think the owner of the shop noticed that it was toned.
For the right price, someone will buy anything. You have to find the right buyer at the right price. As I've mentioned, the coin is worth about what you paid for it. I wouldn't expect much profit, but if you post it in the marketplace section at the right price, I'm sure someone would buy it.
It is pretty much worth what you paid. There is nothing special about toning unless it is really dramatic. Some collectors prefer their coins toned, some like them untoned, some don't care. It really adds nothing to the coin.
