I have picked up a lot of toned Franklins in the last few months, this being my last. This one appears to me to be artificially toned. Cant really explain why except the colors just do not look right to me. Any opinions? Thanks!

The observe looks kind of artificial, but the reverse looks pretty natural to me.

I agree that the reverse looks fine, but I don't know about the obverse.

Looks natural to me. The colors blend together in a way that AT colors do not.

I think it has good eye appeal
Rest in Peace

Gives no hints of artificial toning. Sometimes the most extraordinary toning occurred naturally, as with this one. A real sweetie.

I see no problem with it. Looks like part of the coin was covered up for a bit, maybe in a bag. I like it.
