Photos don't really do it justice. There's a lot more variation I. Color than comes through here, especially some blue along the rim. Really beautiful coin!

To me, this looks artificial.

It did cross my mind it could be artificially toned, but only because it looks so good. Too good? It's even, and the more colorful blues and greens only appear toward the rim. In the center it's much more bronze in appearance.

I don't see any signs of spotting, dripping, brushing, or cleaning. There's very few marks and they look to be bag/contact marks from what I can tell.

Anyone who thinks it may be AT, I'd be interested to hear the reasoning for the concern. Pics really don't show the tone very well, but with some guidance maybe I can come to a stronger determination.

Either way, it's pleasing to look at!
