That's a great looking coin and I really like the die cracks too. I'd take a coin toned like that any day over one of those psychedelic, 60's acid trip, cryaola toned coins that people are paying stupid money for these days. I love toned coins, but I want the tone to enhance the eye appeal of the coin, not be the eye appeal of the coin.

And don't forget that not all toning is multi-colored. For me, toning doesn't call originality into question; it serves as a mark of originality. Why would anyone want to see this coin in white?

That's a nice way to put it.
