It's in my 2012 limit Edition Proof Set. The coins are starting to tone an orange/yellow/red fire-like sunrise/sunset/lava color. The coin in question happens to be the 2012 Hawaii volcanoes. Depending on many many variables it could take a year to forever for the quarter in question to look amazing and one of a kind. The question is, do I wait it out or sell the set and buy something else in the now? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The quarter with the most color has a haze under the color. I'm just guessing and going to assume that the toning process starts with a haze? I see a haze beginning to form on the Proof fields of the other coins. Is it possible that's the beginning stages of the toning taking place? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Ive seen a lot of these silver qtrs do the same thing. I've had some for years now and they have never gotten past that nice golden color. Keep'em!!
If it tones the "right way," you could make an enormous profit on the set. I would keep it for now and see what happens.
If you really want something else more sure sell it. I guess it's a matter of opportunity cost. Doesn't seem like you are emotionally invested in it so maybe it is better to sell Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Whats your long term goal? To have the Silver Proof set or to have a Silver Proof Set that is toned in glorious colors that you can sell for ungodly amounts of money? If its the latter, then sell it. If it's the former, then keep it and call back in 28 years.
I know how it is having too many coins chasing too few dollars. But I swear I probably couldn't sell either of those. Look for something else to unload. (Easy for me to say, I know.)
