The Indian rupee coin looks like it was in a coin frame at some time, it looks consistent with silver coins that have been exposed to the sulfur in the cardboard backing, and they usually tone purple back. As for the seller, I don't know where he comes up with all of those target toned coins, they are all unusual, and toning is one of those criteria where beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I just wonder why the Obv toning is so different from the Rev toning. Also the Obv coloration from center to rim. looks more like the AT I've seen before.

But... it does look good!

I always go by gut feeling. In this case it looks like NT to me, but I'm no pro.
