Do you think it could be old cleaning?

We used to own that coin, and no, it has not had an old cleaning.
It came out of the Ford sale here.

I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

Thanks CCU. I was pretty sure being such a rarity and having passed through famous hands + PCGS and CAC wouldn't have missed it, but I'm new to coppers and wasn't sure how the toning mostly appeared around the letters (especially REX) and not so much in the fields.
I'm just here to learn and believe the best way is to ask without trying to offend that is.
Looking at your pictures from the Stack collection it does look like natural toning and it is a great coin.
One your left hand and one for your right hand. Simple. With your powers combined....
