The coin on the left appears to be plated or what the center one must be toned and the right coin is just regular coin.
If one wanted to make a coin on the left how would one do it?

Bury it in a pot on nice red Georgia clay for a year, that'll do it up just fine.

CT(like that!), a lot of factors may affect a nickels color. Some "tonings" are nothing more than soda in a car cupholder type staining the coin. Sometimes saltwater and sun, all this is ED, environmental damage. There are chemical "washes" that alter or add color. Look up "how to electroplate your own coins" on YouTube, thousands of how to's. You studying to become our next garage miscreant?
