Real or Fake Patina?

Hello,
I’m considering bidding on this Dollar on Ebay in Europe.
Do you think the patina is real or just artificial?
How much would you give for this piece?
Thanks for your suggestions in advance

Pass.
Not sure whether At or natural (if I had to choose one way or another, I would say artificial) But... not very appealing ... looks ugly to me. I would also pass on this
Patina aside. Here’s some areas of concern

I look at it as AT and AU. Hard pass.

My current Registry sets:
✓ Everyman Mint State Carson City Morgan Dollars (1878 – 1893)
✓ Everyman Mint State Lincoln Cents (1909 – 1958)
✓ Morgan Dollar GSA Hoard (1878 – 1891)
The color isn’t natural.

I would pass.
Not very attractive regardless of NT or AT, if you can get it really cheap as a bullion buy it would be ok, not something you want to pay a premium for from these photos.

….thanks to all. I’ll let it go!
That would be a pass for me.... Looks AT, too many hits/dings/scrapes/whatever.... Cheers, RickO
Rockhounds have a term that I've found is quite suitable/applicable in coin collecting. I'd assess this one as a Leaverite
