What do you think? This fella on E-bay has quite a few coins that have toning on the coin that covers nearly the entire coin.

Is it mikega?? Looks like his handiwork to me. Says they are album toned, but look fishy to me.

Compare your photo to the reverse of the Arkansas Commem pictured above. The toning is nearly identical.

100% AT. Steer clear.

Looks AT to me!

I think it's a damn shame people have to do these things to classic commems. It's difficult enough to learn to grade these without someone making the learning curve even steeper by artificially toning a bunch of them. If you're going to be getting into classic commems, go for full white pieces.

Indeed, it is Mikega. Major bummer. Coins look great otherwise. Thanks for the consultation...

Fake and a half. That, btw, is exactly the same toning as on a San Diego I returned to a seller a couple months ago. The pics looked a little more plausible, but in hand it was a ringer for that Stone Mountain. When I shared my concern I got back a story about Grampa's estate, but he did refund.
