Buyer beware--some people do love that stuff. It's the free marketplace, warts and all.

I like tasteful toning, but this thing is a scourge to my eyes and should be melted

Several ebay sellers appear to deal in 'force toned' coins--not just the one noted above. One would think that if ebay goes after one, they'd need to go after others. Ultimately, it's a buyer beware issue.

You buy what you want...hopefully newbies are not drawn in and then disappointed later on.

Did they nuke the rest of the seller's listings too? I only briefly looked at it yesterday and they were all like that.

There were a few missed on the first pass. The rest will be gone soon.

Thanks, nss. I'm actually a bit surprised ebay did anything about that.
