<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 116946, member: 3011&quot;]I&#039;m sure a psychologist could have a field day investigating all of the deep-seated problems coin collectors have when they get upset over toning.&nbsp; I don&#039;t consider toned coins to be either more or less valuable.&nbsp; They just are.&nbsp; Of course there is ugly toning and nice toning, which is more a matter of taste than condition.&nbsp; Personally I just prefer grey to wild colors.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s also difficult to understand why a coin that has been handed out as change from a bank roll by the gas station attendant with oily hands, laying in beer on the bar, thrown in the cash register, and sitting in a coin jar for a long time before being spent will be &quot;discovered&quot; by a collector as a nice EF example.&nbsp; But if he runs it under a stream of water it immediately becomes &quot;cleaned&quot; and therefore essentially worthless.&nbsp; It&#039;s a good thing we don&#039;t know where all of those old EF morgan dollars have been.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
