This eBay seller has an 1894 toned Indian cent for sale, it is rainbow toned, but it is very worn. Isn't this an obvious artificial toning? http://cgi.ebay.com/1894-RAINBOW-TO...dual?hash=item3a51a42dd9&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

What about this toning job? I bought this coin off ebay and I thought it was just bad photography. When I got the coin I realized that it has a strange toning to it. It didn't bother me enough to return it for a refund but it sure makes me wonder. Does anyone know how it got this way? It's brown, like with a thin brown film of smoke or something.
