Does a colorful coin worth as much (Coin Collecting)?
I recently began collecting coins, and I remember last time I read somewhere that coins began to have some reaction and they change color. The pictures shown consisted of some shiny colorful coins (like the rainbow car fluid on the ground), shiny red, and some others. I can’t find the site. Do these really have higher values? Because I went to http://www.mycoincollecting.com/ and they say that most dealers pay more for ___uncirculated__ coins…
There are 2 groups of collectors when it comes to toned coins. One group is the blazing white group whit no tone at all. The other group likes rainbow toned coins. That group pays more for them. You need to get the word uncirculated out of your head and add mint state. Uncirculated was always a word that was not always true. I have found mint state coins in change that is they have no wear, in the old system one would have to say they are uncirculated but that is not true. I have some mint state winged liberty head dimes (mercury) as well as some buffalo nickels that are mint state but have toned rose and blue colors. They are magnificent and beautiful. They do command a premium just as much as a white blazer. It depends on who I sell them too, they however are not for sale. Where the rainbow tone come really into play is with Morgan dollars. There are a lot of collectors that love them with a rainbow tone in mint state grades. Hope this answers your question. One note circulated coins usually do not tone up to the rainbow effects due to it rubbed off in usage.
