<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 7524840, member: 100459"]I have about 30 Morgans, of which 12 are 1921. Two of those 12 are 1921D & 1921S. I've not been knowledgeable about toning until I started reading in CT. I'm not much on the total toning of coins, but this thread made me go back and look at my Morgans. I don't know how significant it is, but many of my Morgans have, what I think is toning on the outside edge of the coins. Does the toning cover more of the coin as it gets older? What I have called as toning is a pinkish hue on the edge of the face of the coins. I don't know how my father stored them. They were given to my brother and he gave me a list of the coins and we divided them as evenly as possible. I would like to know more about toning. Any idea of a good reference that will help me understand. I have a couple of coins that were graded as well as a set of 3 (1882CC, 1883CC, 1884CC) NGC MS 65 that have no toning. I bought 10 1921 before I got into coin collecting. I do have the 1921D & 1921S, of which none have any "toning". Anyway, I appreciate the information CT has been giving. I know I have a long way to go to be a true coin collector. Oh, yeah. I want to take pictures to down load, but that is another story.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
