Is that considered artificially toned?

The starting bid on that $2.5 happens to be 2.5X melt value!  |

Wow--but at least they admit the IHC is polished--there are quite a few sellers describing these as "BU"  |

Have to admit I posted a question about this IHC in an unrelated topic before discovering this awesome "worst of ebay" thread. Seller's title: 1908 1C Indian Head cent Great Luster Head Penny Good Coin131199506649 Kind of odd melange of descriptors, but ok, we'll give him some space on the description. Here are the amazing, high-luster surfaces:   And it's only $22..... plus shipping! Edited by shermae
