I would not call that toned. That looks like corrosion to me. Being that a nickel is made of a copper alloy it is susceptible to all sorts of corrosive agents. Looks like verdigris to me, but it might look at a lot different in hand than in the picture.

Years ago they used to make a cleaner for polishing that was green in color. It seemed like the color remained on the coin even after polishing. Still a nice coin though. Most of the time they are pretty much worn down to where the devices are barely showing. I would leave the coin as is. It is still a nice hole filler in a book.
