<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1019954, member: 15309"]We have a winner. I paid $712 for the coin. My max bid was $750. I remember my initial reaction to the coin was that it was solid for the grade. Often times, rainbow toned coins will be market graded and given a bump for the toning. This is not a toned MS65 in an MS66 holder. The cheek is very clean with only a few luster grazes and the reverse is equally as solid. The toning pattern is unusual in that it was created by two overlapping coins. The photos gave me reason to believe that the luster was strong and the colors were vibrant. I thought that the coin was worth 3-4X bid and placed a strong bid which left me paying basically a retail price at the time. I was very happy when I received the coin, it is very impressive in hand.</p><p><br /></p><p>As a reminder, this thread will work better if we post only one coin at a time. Mike was the winner and now has the option to post his own toner or pass on his option and leave it open to the quickest on the draw. Mike you have 24 hours to respond or posting will become open to everyone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
