Wild toning - is this real?

I discovered this dime in the local dealers bargin box ($1). The toning looks almost looks like neon. I've never seen anything like it, and wonder if it is real.

Can't really see the colors, but for a business strike and what I can see, I'll say that I doubt it's NT

By the generally accepted definition, I think the toning is natural. I also think it's a bodybag if submitted.

How would a coin become naturally toned to look like that?

If stored in an envelope over an extended period while exposed to a humid climate, clad will tone all kinds of wild colors.
