Jerry Bobbe (copper coin specialist, restorer, ex-PCGS grader) stated that he thinks that (MikesMoutainValues and the 1909 VDB Lincoln that started this thread) are treating with MS-70.

I shall endeavor to find out more - as in what chemicals other than MS-70 might be used.

Over the years we've had a lot of threads on coin forums about MS-70 and copper. Many of us experimented - personally, I never had any luck toning test coins with it. However, a guy on CT forums (L.Keigwin) recreated this color on a few different coins to prove what it does to Lincolns.

I've seen many suspect blue coins at shows over the years, I stay away from that look - don't trust it. What I would consider market acceptable blue doesn't look like this coin. The MA version of blue or even green typically has some mint red and other colors mixed in.
