[QUOTE="rysherms, post: 1845288, member: 46631"]I am curious about something regarding toning and do not know if it warrants its own thread so I will just throw it out there and let the MODs decide. If you could have your dream coin, doesn't matter what it is, in the TPG slab of your choice, graded MS70 or PF70/PR70, etc....and your choice was to have that coin as a perfect shiny silver coin like the day it rolled off the press, or colorized with some form of toning (rainbow, monotone, etc)....what would you prefer? Personally, I would choose the perfectly silver version with no toning. The apex and motivation of coin collecting to me is to attain a coin that is old, rare, and in the EXACT condition as the day it was struck. And I apologize if anyone takes this as an attack on toned coins. I own toned coins. I just thought I would catch the opinions of those that are passionate about toning and therefore might better understand that mindset in this thread.[/QUOTE]
