Friends, This coin got an interesting toning on it. Let me know if this coin will make straight grade of XF45 to AU50. Appreciate all your inputs.

AU details (ED). that does not appear to be toning, it looks like environmental damage from what may be improper storage. it may, however, clean up based on what it is using either acetone or verdicare

The coin looks AU but we'll have to wait for you to post better photos when it arrives. I don't think anything will remove those dark spots without changing the color and surface of the coin.

I don't see how it could straight-grade with that clearly post-mint polka dot overlay, however it was created.

I've seen that pattern before on silver coins. In those cases, the best guess was dipping, followed by improper drying on a paper towel. I wonder if something like that happened here?

Looks right at the border between XF/AU details environmental damage. Try verdicare, worth a shot.
