The cresent on the reverse makes me think it could be bag toned.

It would fit in the confine of the rims if the coin was sitting offset to one side.
I don't think it could be bag toned--if you fit a peace dollar on the thin part of the crescent (either end), it extends too far to have another peace dollar fit in it and tone all the way around. In addition, the obverse doesn't look like bag toning colors. I've got to go album toned on this one.

Notice how the obverse is brillant and there's a slight area of toning on the obverse which would correspond to were the coin might have made the most contact against the bag. Further the toning on the reverse is also the darkest in the same contact point.
Crescent doesn't always mean bag, but that Peace $ sure is pretty though! Nice coin!
