I wouldn't care if it's AT.
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.

An NT coin should at least have a trace of rim toning on the obverse as well. Toning like that on only one side is very suspect.
EDIT: I'm switching to AT due to the apparent texture of the toned areas.

Not a problem at all.....I am hoping that the pics are juiced up....if not, it will go with my AT section of a website that I am designing. Besides.....my daughter LOVES the colors...
And that's all that matters

<< <i>Funny - you'd think he'd have put that color on the obverse.
Brother, you have a very unique way of getting your message across.

I still say it's a heck of a nice coin.

I agree. I have one like it that WAS dipped but naturally toned in a similar pattern. At least it has the same progression of colors.
It's definitely AT...I've made that color pattern before by xperimenting making AT coins. I experimented so I would know what AT coins looked like (doing something, for me personally, is the best education because I get to experience it first hand versus handed down knowledge).
I used apple vinegar, vidalia onion, and one egg...mashed it up in a little bowl and set it in a sealed tupperware container. The coin was set on a rubber ring inside the container (so the side on the rubber ring didn't tone). About 14 hours later...voila!
Perhaps the ingredients used to make this coin were different, but the outcome is nearly identical.

If I understand correctly, you are saying because you doctored a coin, you conclude HIS coin is doctored.
For all of those who say (very authoritatively) that this coin is AT: Tell us how you know. What do you see that brings you to the conclusion that the coin is AT?
The AT comment otherwise look like baseless opinion designed to rain on someone's parade.
Congrats!!
It also has the lighter colors around the edge lettering while having the tops of the letters darker...another trait of NT coins. Either that or the artist was extremely good at painting the top of the coin while not touching the fields.
Seems like the consensus here is AT, but I have some doubts.

I would tend to agree with you IMHO. Just from pictures viewed over time it seems the AT perps seem compelled to do both obverse & reverse instead of just one side.
Chance favors the prepared mind.

A doctor can usually detect his own handiwork, or at least recognize when a similar technique was applied, yes.
