NT or AT Morgan?

I haven’t dealt with many toned coins and I was wondering if this is natural or artificial toning? If natural, does it add or take away value even though it’s basically a bullion coin. Thanks!

    Looks NT to me also. Toning is kinda neutral, maybe negative, since photo reverse is flat/dull. If there is luster popping and more of a vibrant green could be slightly positive. Reminds me of a Morgan I have with a reverse like that.

    It looks NT to me.

    If it were AT, why would the coin doctor bother? If they are that bad, they need new job.

    The coin is not ugly; it's just that the toning has a zero premium.

    Although common date, hopefully MS Morgans can still get a premium over bullion. Soft strike common with the date but looks like it might grade MS63. PSA, do not dip. Darker cycle toning colors will usually leave a shadow with a quick dip. Longer dips will strip any luster.

    common date, common grade morgans may or may not be saleable to a dealer as they are flooded with 90%; however, they would hold no premium right now

    NT, kind of boring though, won't help the value

    Mine looks very similar to yours. I’m not very good at coin pictured taking. There is luster on both sides.

    NT. Die crack from tip of truncation to first star adds visual interest.
