[QUOTE="kanga, post: 1126076, member: 9270"]Rainbow toned coins are a personal preference although there is ample evidence that it is now a marketing factor. But unlike a "white" NGC MS66 coin, there is no price guide for toned coins that I know of. So how much you pay depends upon research and your desire to have the coin. That being said, I won't pay extra for a rainbow toned coin. If I buy an uncirculated coin I want it to look as it did when it left the Mint. And coins that have been in circulation don't get rainbow toning. Only coins that have been stored away get that sort of toning (I'm talking NT). But I have to admit that uncirculated Jefferson nickels that have acquired a golden or subtle rainbow toning are quite appealing. I guess they appeal to me because it's a "gentle" toning, not an "in your face" type that is often seen on other coins.[/QUOTE]
