it just doesn't matter, I liked it at a small premium to ms60 price so i bought it.
wouldnt have paid 10x sheet for this piece no matter who's holder it was in.
but bet i could sell it for 10x what i paid if it were slabbed.
ok maybe i am asking: does it look like it would slab?
and if not, how the heck did it get like this?

If you like it that's all that matters. IMO it's a bad coin. I don't like the way the blue sits on the coin as well as splotchy. Even if it did slab, I don't think you would get 10x sheet for it. I picked this coin up at a show recently it's in a pcgs ms66 holder. I payed maybe 2-3 x sheet but the rev is even more intense.
The "Monster Walkers", I haven't seen them go for as crazy money as Morgans yet. But they are working on it. This coin notice how the color flows and not wild like the one you show. This is only a scan but the colors are exactly as they appear in the scan. Only nice and iridescent in person.
BTW, I am too lazy to post the rev, but this will give you an idea. This is a 1942D.
Edit to add: also the other colors on the coin you posted don't look right imo. Notice on mine even though there is plenty of color you still see the original skin through the coin. I wrote all this because even though the title of your thread says you don't care if it's real...You still asked would it slab and seems like you do care
pcgs ms66
If you don't care that's fine. It's your money. Hopefully the guy you try to sell it to won't care either
Stman got it right. It's a bad coin.
it's a great looking coin to me. I'll just say it, it's probably AT but I don't care.
If you like it, that's all that matters.

Should we call all `bad` toning AT? No.
It could be `natural`just not alot of eye-appeal for most tastes probably.
The grade looks kinda high anyway.
Who knows.
Why do I hate this? I could point to a few reasons but here is one big one......The more people don't care and buy a coin because they think it's pretty and not original, The more the PRICE goes up on the true original coins. Think about that one. But like I mentioned earlier, the person that started the thread says he don't care but asks if it would slab. How the coin he posts got the color, I don't know and don't care, I'm not a Coin Dr to be able to know these things
<< <i>The more people don't care and buy a coin because they think it's pretty and not original, The more the PRICE goes up on the true original coins >>
You're spot on with this statement. This is where knowledge about what flies and what doesn't and what is and what isn't pays off. Sure, you can buy any coins you think are colored "pretty" but selling it is a whole different matter, but then again, someone may buy it from you and you're good to go. However, the classic looking coins will always command a premium IMHO - if anything because of their "originality".
