What does the "T" mean?

Hello, I'm looking at coins on E bay. This quarter is graded as an MS 66 T. Can someone tell what the "T" stands for? Thanks!

Its a rare slab around the time of the Appalachian horde of Jefferson nickles. Ngc started putting either a W if the coin was blast white or a T if the coin is fully toned, the program did not last long and most of the slabs contain Jefferson nickels.

Thanks for the explanation! I wonder if it increases the value?

 

[Mackaydon]

Any increase in value (eventual sales price) is due to the hype of the seller's comments and in the eyes (aesthetic response) of the potential buyer.

I paid $27.00 for it. Which is about what it books for. Thanks for the info everyone!
