<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bqcoins, post: 536190, member: 5036&quot;]I was at the coin shop this weekend after not being able to go to the show in Nevada greatly disappointed at the turn of events that kept me from getting to my first show this year and my dealer was going through a &quot;big&quot; buy of mostly scrap silver, wheat pennies, proof sets, modern commems, and the like.&nbsp; While sorting through the proof sets he came across this 1961 with these beautifully toned coins.&nbsp; I begged, I pleaded, because he has an affinity for blue nickels, but I have an affinity for anything that is toned magnificently.&nbsp; We came to a deal and this beautiful proof set came home with me for a mere $20.&nbsp; To be honest I&#039;d have payed that just for the half, I don&#039;t even care about the grade, I just never see naturally toned coins that look like that for anything approaching a reasonable price.&nbsp; I mean, WOW, just look at the color in that bad boy, and still in the packaging from the mint.&nbsp; Now here&#039;s the big question.&nbsp; Do I break it up, put the toned one in my set of franklins and the others, etc.&nbsp; Or do I leave it all as one set? </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3225.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3224.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3229.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3230.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
