Looks artificial to me. However, natural or artificial the reverse is more pleasant than the obverse.

Quote: is this artificially or naturally toned That is not the right question. Quote: Market acceptable! That is the right answer.

Peace dollars often achieve unpleasant toning. This one appears unusually good.

Unusually colorful toning for a Peace dollar, but it looks market acceptable.

It is nice toning, and after another look, I'd say it was natural - there is an area at K4 where another dollar coin was resting on it as the rest of the exposed are toned out.

Since a typical NGC-graded MS-64 1922 Peace dollar is worth around $70, that's quite a premium for the toning!
