Definitely a home toning job.
If it weren't it would be slabbed.

they have plenty of sales already.

Or this one... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1910-S-Lin...284256897421

Mentions the old cleaning and polishing, but conveniently leaves out the AT.

Report them as what? They aren't counterfeits, just vividly artificially toned coins. And ebay is making money off of the guy so they aren't going to do anything.

Had an ugly reply from seller, who basically flaunted his right to sell these altered coins on ebay.

From sellers description

Quote:
I HAVE COLLECTED THOUSANDS OF TONED Wheat penny'S OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS AND NOW I AM RELEASING THEM BACK INTO THE WORLD AND ARE NOW FOR SALE. HA..it gets worseTHESE COINS ARE HARD TO COME BY AND IT HAS TAKEN COUNTLESS ESTATE AUCTIONS OVER THE YEARS BEFORE I FINALLY CAME ACROSS SUCH A COLLECTION That used to be BN and problem free. I HOPE YOU FIND THE ONE THAT COMPLETES YOUR OWN COLLECTION AND ENJOY THEM AS MUCH AS I HAVE. HA, ok, you mean the coins you just bought yesterday and threw under the torch and now hate to part with for such a profit...


His disclaimer below this in the description is entertaining as well, you know, just in case it happens to come back from a TPG as AT.
