[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 2307713, member: 59737"]For the first part of your question: I think it has been cleaned, but maybe an older cleaning? For the second part: that is hard to tell, it's all about the chemistry of the coin and also whether that is natural or artificial. I would've assumed that the toning is from an old holder, but then I see some toning on the shield but not on the obverse which is why I think it was cleaned. I would not take my input as truth as I've not studied these enough and do not know toning the way some of the guys here do.[/QUOTE]
