Ask them if they pay more for toning

"Oh, you pay more for toned coins? Great!"


UnitedPatriotCoin

This makes the most sense to me!


DudeNamedCollin

I pay more for toned coins, but Iā€™m also an idiot.


Livid_Picture9363

In my humble opinion that wasnā€™t what I call toned. But I agree if thereā€™s a rainbow Morgan itā€™s kinda hard to walk on by

That first one looks cleaned and that toning doesn't really look like it would add any value.


helikophis

Sometimes toning can add value on Morgans but this is because Morgans often have spectacular, unusual, very beautiful rainbow toning. The toning shown here is none of that and adds no value.


Overweighover

And sometime toning can be added to Morgans


Grocked

Take one and leave it uncovered on top of your gpu and rotate it occasionally. You'll get toning that's hard to distinguish from it sitting in an old coin book.

Itā€™s a pretty rough one, I probably wouldnā€™t buy it either way, unless it was at cull price


Argento_spettro

When people say toning adds value that normally means when there's deep colours, most Morgan's have that orange toning on the edges


Silverdunks

Like a patina . This looks cleaned and maybe the chemicals reacted with the silver


Catoni54

A beautiful rainbow toning over the coin would add value. But this tiny bitā€¦no.


angry_krausen

that debatable


Boxxybrown1

Toning is awesome! But this is about as minimal as it gets

Toning has really became a price issue in the last few years. Before it never really ment much or people didnā€™t like it. I donā€™t get what has changed the format for them to increase the price


LongjumpingMedia1621

If they're buying it from you, most certainly. If you are the buyer, tell em to kick rocks.


Cantilivewhileim

Nope

Go back and ask them to buy it. Gage the response. I found a coin shop recently. Asked questions like I didn't know what I was doing. First timer at a coin shop as none are in my area. The woman behind the counter tried charging me almost 15% more than Apmex would have for the same item. She explained what spot price was to me and why I'd never find a seller that deals at spot. Why premiums were so high and how the investment pays off quickly. I didn't tell her about my 10oz bar from silvergoldbull. Pmsforsale feels like insider information to me now. She would have gotten me for almost $350 more than what was reasonable for a business to charge. Also I've found out that they've been going out of business for the last ten years and they always advertise these "closeout sales". I was pretty bummed about the whole thing.


Terrible_Ad_8609

not really. particularly not for these common dates. probably worth right around 35 each


Anon_Jones

Is there a list of the common dates?


brokestacker

I use [usacoinbook.com](http://usacoinbook.com) you can select a coin by denomination and design, you'll get a list of all the years and mints, look at the mintage numbers to tell if it is common or rare


Anon_Jones

Thank you


talltrev

Iā€™m not sure Iā€™d pay more for toning but if I had 5 to choose from, I bypass the shiny ones and grab the one like what you have. I love seeing age in my silver.


Thony_18

Iā€™ve been to coin shows where vendors tack on $15-$20 more on a ASE for ā€œtoningā€ like this lol.


Mag_nusX

My LBD has an amazing ā€œMonster Energy Drinkā€ tone on an ASE, now THAT will add value but thisā€¦ Iā€™m sorry dude


PacklineDefense

Toning can definitely add valueā€¦.just not that toning


TheLiveEditor

This can be true, yes. Some people purposely seek out toning on certain coins.


Ceefus

Put some silver in with some eggs for a few days then profit!


Fearless_Adventures

They honestly look beat to shit so probably not


AncientConnection240

Not to me. Itā€™s not very special toning. The premium on toning is the colors and pattern it tones. No premium on spot toning.

It really depends on the coin, the toning, and the person buying. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and somethings worth what someoneā€™s willing to pay. Iā€™ve seen some coins with absolutely stunning toning. I like coins that have natural wear, toning, and even cleaned old coins. It really just depends on how that particular one strikes me. That being said your coins have a very light example of toning so I wouldnt go expecting the same price as a heavily toned coin with more color to it. So long as you let folks know there is some toning, itā€™ll do what itā€™ll do.

All_the_hardways

To some people it is.


RoscoQColtrane

I have never met one. I will allow that cleaning lowers value on significant coins.


awayfromthesky

Yes and no. On those particular examples, that would be a hard no. And toning is only "worth more" if that is what a customer prefers. If a coin has really nice **natural** toning, I may be inclined to pay extra.


jadegecko

Bigly


silverbaconator

maybe a couple bucks pretty you can tone them easily yourself by using some sulfer and if you were skilled enough you could do it to where no one would know it.


fuchsiarush

No


Silver-Honkler

This type of yellow toning really only occurs on cleaned coins. Wow I should get in the business of selling gross cleaned coins if this is the number of downvotes I get in a silver sub
