<p>[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 4831738, member: 105098"]I dunno man, My opinion is as it was and it would be slabbed by NGC or PCGS and likely get a * on the slab to boot. I don't see many toned nickels beyond the golden hues, but I have seen slabs from either company on HA with similar colors in the pastel range that were not tagged as artificially toned even though they might likely have been. I think all of them can pass for natural, even if they are artificial because The grading companies won't be able to peg the artificial means of doing it, and the length of time the coins have been since being struck, it could be natural. I see the toning, I think it's extreme, but those artificial toning guys on ebay REALLY like to go big with the colors when they do it, it's usually bright, strong and extreme like aneon blue ring around the rim, or worse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look at this guy on Ebay if you don't mind a link to an auction</p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/1964-Jefferson-Nickel-PCGS-MS65-Intense-Neon-Blurple-Rainbow-Toned-Color-Rarity/383695310457?hash=item595605ce79:g:2jkAAOSwMKxfSHmk" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/1964-Jefferson-Nickel-PCGS-MS65-Intense-Neon-Blurple-Rainbow-Toned-Color-Rarity/383695310457?hash=item595605ce79:g:2jkAAOSwMKxfSHmk" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/1964-Jefferson-Nickel-PCGS-MS65-Intense-Neon-Blurple-Rainbow-Toned-Color-Rarity/383695310457?hash=item595605ce79:g:2jkAAOSwMKxfSHmk</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Legit?I dunno, for those that don't want to open links I put the pictures also.
