Someone on the PCGS boards (I think Mr. Eureka, perhaps in jest) suggested that we have a "contest" for the best toned coins at our 1st meeting, which is fine with me IF we can get a case for display purposes. My thought is that we would have the following categories:

 

19th Century Toned Coins: Cent, Nickel, Half Dime, Dime, Quarter, Half Dollar & Dollar

 

20th Century Toned Coins: Cent, Nickel, Dime, Quarter, Half Dollar & Dollar

 

I thought about doing this by series, but seems to me there would be too many categories, as it is, there's 11 categories above and that doesn't even include commeratives!

 

Haven't really come up with any "Prizes" yet - thought maybe a jar of jeweluster for the loosers , Have to figure out something "approprate" for the "winners" - Ideas appreciated, but if it costs money, be ready to contribute.

 

More info is accross the street in the current section of this thread:
