Interesting! I like it.
You may want to change the title to Peace, not Morgan.

This is artificial toning - reverse below gives it away IMO.
It may be "enhanced" toning where AT was applied to an already toned coin.
Either which way I consider it to be suspect.

It looks to me like album toning, where the more toned side is closer to the page's edge giving it front line exposure to environmental intrusion.

Totally natural toning

Looks natural to me... starting at the rims and moving inward.

Natural toning, but it does look like it was under another similar sized coin for a long time while it toned.

The example is most likely straight graded by PCGS as the plastic holder shows up on the top of the rim, and the photo looks like one of Phil's at Great Collection. I am not buying off on it as NT as the example is circulated and has deep rich red and green rainbow toning around the eagle's perch. The color progression on the reverse is strange as both sides are different. If the example is NT, I would sure like to know what environment the coin was sitting in to get the rainbow toning on a Peace dollar. |

Artificial toning in my opinion.
Errers and Varietys.
