Whatever that means? Beautiful natural toning on this $90 coin.

This is so sad.

Cant figure out which is worse- the botched forced toning, or that someone will most likley fall for it.
Rest in Peace

The seller of that item did not have very much information on that Flying Eagle cent. Plus the toning on that coin makes me feel like I'm on drugs or something.

Unfortunately, what can ebay do about it. They have no idea what natural toning looks like so really, there is nothing they can do. Educating new collectors in the attributes of natural toning is really the only way. Just wish we can get to them in time before putting a bid on something like this

Either this new listing is a different cent, or the same one.

The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale.

Had to go hold it with tongs in a different spot to tone those blank spots from the first time around at 8 and 10 o'clock.
