I apologize for no link. I usually put a link but I am on the road on my phone. CCF'n while driving!
I also am of the opinion that it is natural however, I don't think it's been cleaned. I will have to look at it on my PC.
I'm considering throwing a bid down. Have to get home and check the greysheet.

Possibly toned from long-term kraft envelope storage which tends to produce thick dark iridescent toning. There is still alot of luster, I would grade it AU55/58.

The toning looks good to me and I don't see any problems. Pretty coin, and the opening bid seems very reasonable. The seller allows returns and has 100% positive feedback. What's not to like?
Rest in Peace

Looks market acceptable to me. However, the TPG's are very fussy so I cannot say if it would slab.

Just for my own information what are the things that you look for to determine if the toning is natural?

I usually use Chrome as my browser, but when I need to copy an image I open Internet Explorer, right click on the image, click "save image", then upload it to Photobucket, then here.

1) Color progressions (read the book Coin Chemistry)
2) Knowing what artificially toned/market unaccepable coins typically look like.
3) Experience
