Any thoughts on the toning and grade of this Morgan dollar ? This was part of a group of 30 common date Morgans that I purchased a while ago. I have already posted 2 of them. Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Toning is very suspicious to me. I vote 90% artificial toning. Not impossible, but highly improbable.

The coin looks cleaned too.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

AU details. It looks like one of edynamicmarketing's creations. OP, I would return this if it was a recent ebay purchase.

Thanks for all the opinions. I appreciate the responses. I will put this coin in my junk silver box, or use it as a ball marker when I play golf.
