    You must not have been collecting Morgans much, as real blue toning is quite common. I must have owned 25 or more Blue Morgans.

    Thanks, toning is a preference. some like it some don't. Most folks don't realize that a brilliant white coin has been dipped or cleaned in it's life "properly restored".
    Even with nickel and clad coinage. Metal starts changing tones immediately after it was minted.

    Me too. If the price was right for the OP’s coin I’d buy it. I think the toning pattern is interesting.

    Has nice luster under the color, I'm pretty sure is nicer in hand and a lot of toning when photographed close IS splotchy. Would it command the premium of say cpm9ball's amazing blue? Definitely not. Chance has been less kind to this one, but she's still good lookin', just a different tier.

    I have blue coins, but terrible pictures of them...

    I don't care for the coloring on the obverse. The reverse is a bit better. For me it would be a pass, based on the photos. In hand, it may have some appeal.

    Toning on the coin looks original, but it hurts the eye appeal. I would not purchase this coin if the toning in the photo is accurate to how it looks in hand.
