First ran across this image on Coinfacts, but it has since been taken down.

Looking for a nice AT example?

That's a magnesium coin. They do tend to tone colorful and with diffrent color from silver coins.
I would guess that it was left in dansco coin album with the mylar slide window off from the reverse. Jmho.
Bob is just looking for a rise. He's sold worse than that in the past.
That's an awful lot of color on that coin, Shaggy.

I don't care what anyone says, that coin is beautiful and I would be happy to own it, even happier to have found it raw.
I haven't seen anyone able to produce the yellow and reds around the background horse herd. That's natural toning progression IMO.
Pretty neat how the toning aligns with the design on the Sac dollar!
AT or NT it does have an impressive look to it.
If it’s artificial, someone make me one, I’ll pay moon money. That’s a gorgeous coin! I’d seriously pay stupid money to own that.

Try asking on Instagram.
Last I heard, this guy had it:
No.
I suspect it's somewhere over the rainbow.

Hmmmm, not true. I don't even delve in toned coins much. Like Ricko, the whiter the better. If it is natural, and I can't imagine how a dansco could do that or any other way, I ask how so quickly. Toning generally takes decades if not longer to become so vibrant. Isn't this a 2012 coin?

PS: just looked on ebay and it does seem that wild toning does happen on these proofs. **So, I do stand corrected **and will accept the magnesium causing the unusual rapidity in toning.

Great find.
It's still online:

Here's the reverse:
As most here know, I am definitely not a fan of tarnish. However, the reverse on that coin (OP) is almost like a painting... very pretty scene and could be a sunrise....Now, back to my blast white coins... Cheers, RickO
Wow! A @ricko approved toner!

Interesting... so the consensus is natural?

Well, didn't get the V75 in gold OR silver but I did pick this up last week. Really glows under my desk lamp.

Sac dollars can display the most vivid, beautiful toning that equals any other coins in the United States series.

Way to go Mel!
