Cleaned, because it was probably a metal detecting find. Spent some time in ground. Also rim damage. I would expect to see a coin like this in the $5.00 cull bucket. It's a decent hole filler if it was any of the CN dates other than '62 or '63.

This coin has DEFINITELY been cleaned. I'm no expert, but it has way too much of an unnatural look to it.

Yup, it was cleaned. No natural aging color.

Soaked in acidic fluid, most likely Coke.

As others noted, the surface shows some evidence of porosity and possible corrosion. As to the color, that all depends on the white balance of the camera and lighting setup. I do see dirt in the devices, so I don't think it's been harshly scrubbed. Photos are intrinsically subjective--does this version look any less cleaned?   Edited by DVCollector

I emailed an asked the seller if the coin was cleaned, and the response I got was "Not by us." In other words, yes.

"Not by us." I suppose that amounts to disclosure?  |
