    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the toning is 100 percent artificial.

    I'm sorry to say that the coin your showing is most definitely not a naturally toned coin.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Do not pass go, do not collect $200. If necessary, use a 10 ft. pole to keep plenty of space between it and you. Run away as fast as available transportation will take you.

    I never thought that growing old would happen so fast.

    I suppose it's original (as in unique), but is certainly isn't natural.

    in my never ending learn new things I took a Buffalo Nickel and was trying to make the face flat so I cold add a design, well the heat from my tool gave it a Blue & Purple Tone. I think it is artifical

    Best place to buy !

    No. Also the term original is meaningless. The coin was not toned when it was struck.

    The terms are Natural and Artificial. And if that's Natural, I've got a great chance at winning next years Triple Crown - as the horse. And I'm not 3 years old.

    I think it is natural... who would artificially tone a coin that ugly. :)

    I guess only beautifully toned coins are natural. :)

    There are plenty of hideous naturally-toned coins.
