Is this toning natural? It graded high but looks kind of dark to me. Just want to make sure it isn't artificially toned.

That looks like toning caused by the original cardboard Mint Set holder.

Thanks - how bad does this hurt the value? Looking at it straight on, it's pretty cool however looking from the side it looks kind of blotchy.

Many collectors like this sort of look - not all that easy to find. Certainly does not hurt value, imo.

Looks natural. In many circles Toned coins are very desirable. Of course it always depend on the toning.

There is no such thing as NT/AT, a coin is either market acceptable or not.
