I don't see anything remotely resembling artificial toning. I see normal rim toning that is exceptionally common on the issue. What are you looking at on the coin specifically?

They have been changing for quite some time. Hold this girl another 2 years and give her a dip she will probably be a 67. Gradeflation is alive and well. Next step send her of to cac. lol A $40 coin can become $300. That's one way to keep a hobby profitable. Crazy world
