I have no clue! I'll wait around and see what others say.

That's what I like about this forum - there's always something new to learn!

Wow, nice tone. I'd say XF-AU, or low MS possibility, has good appeal to me as I like dollars and halves with some toning to them.

Nice find.

The toning looks OK to me also, I agree it was probably in an album but it also looks like it might has been exposed to to some moisture while there which caused some staining.

Although it looks natural to me, I do not find it attractive.

From the picture provided I really can't say with any certainty but it looks ok, not very attractive, but ok.
I'll take mine with a little color, please!

Actually, its' unattractiveness tends to lend support to the originality.
Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy, and good with mustard.
