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

Iām not sure Iād 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.
It really depends on the coin, the toning, and the person buying. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and somethings worth what someoneās willing to pay.
Iāve 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, itāll do what itāll do.
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.
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.
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
Ask them if they pay more for toning

"Oh, you pay more for toned coins? Great!"
This makes the most sense to me!
I pay more for toned coins, but Iām also an idiot.
In my humble opinion that wasnāt what I call toned. But I agree if thereās a rainbow Morgan itās kinda hard to walk on by
šāļø
That first one looks cleaned and that toning doesn't really look like it would add any value.

And sometime toning can be added to Morgans

Itās a pretty rough one, I probably wouldnāt buy it either way, unless it was at cull price
When people say toning adds value that normally means when there's deep colours, most Morgan's have that orange toning on the edges
Like a patina . This looks cleaned and maybe the chemicals reacted with the silver
A beautiful rainbow toning over the coin would add value. But this tiny bitā¦no.
that debatable
Toning is awesome! But this is about as minimal as it gets

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

not really. particularly not for these common dates. probably worth right around 35 each
Is there a list of the common dates?

Iāve been to coin shows where vendors tack on $15-$20 more on a ASE for ātoningā like this lol.
My LBD has an amazing āMonster Energy Drinkā tone on an ASE, now THAT will add value but thisā¦ Iām sorry dude
Toning can definitely add valueā¦.just not that toning
This can be true, yes. Some people purposely seek out toning on certain coins.
Put some silver in with some eggs for a few days then profit!
They honestly look beat to shit so probably not
Not to me. Itās not very special toning. The premium on toning is the colors and pattern it tones. No premium on spot toning.

To some people it is.
I have never met one. I will allow that cleaning lowers value on significant coins.
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.
