it's toning. not an improper annealing. it would need a dipping to remove it if you wanted to do that. it looks nice though and I see no reason to remove the toning it's got a really long way to go before it becomes a problem.
It's early though for it to be toned that much, so it's definitely an "artificial toning" and was accelerated somehow.

Acetone can't hurt, but I don't see it having any effect.

Either way, I'd pass. It is a problem coin. A problem coin is harder to sell. If you have to convince the buyer to buy, that would ruin the deal for me. Move on to a better coin.

Thanks coop. I have a few of these to be graded but this isn't one of them. Bought this because of the eye appeal and price. It may be artificial but it looks great to me

@RW1010 The quarter in a few years will be a superb toning coin. (last photo the best) We can see the formation of the spectrum.
PS.: I do not suggest you to use anymore those gloves. Those has latex and powder which can affect the coins in the 50% or more humidity. Employ those blue free of powder and latex.
