Easy. Dip the coin, then put it in the album, wait a while, et voilà toned, circulated coin.
Lol... I stared at that image for a good several minutes trying to find something wrong with it before I did a google image search against it. It...
Interesting. The letters look white, and not as in silvery white... I mean actually white.
FYI, the image on the listing is taken from here: http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces17404.html I highly doubt whatever this person is selling...

I don't see why not. There's absolutely nothing there that says AT in any form.
I pity the fool who melts my coins. ;)
Definitely AU details, but I wouldn't touch it. Besides the obvious black spotting (environmental damage or crud? I can't tell), and the weird...
When did the United States remove all silver from circulating coinage? a) 1964 b) 1965 c) 1970 d) 1976
