That sure is a very uniform pattern of toning on the Morgan in the ebay listing. I have often at some of the toned coins that get slabbed.
Maybe I just don't know enough to tell AT from the real thing. However even in the PCGS slab I would not buy that coin. The toning doesn't look natural to me.
Well, what defines AT vs. NT? There's nothing to say this coin didn't sit in the proper environment for the proper length of time, with a quarter stacked on top of it. A quarter is the same diameter now as it was in 1880.
I'm ready to buy the toning. It's all a question of what defines "natural."
