It's real toning. The question should be, is it natural or artificial? I'd say artificial.

 

I agree with AT, I don't like the distribution of color depth.

It isn't lipstick, nail polish or spray paint, is it? Of course it's real.

 

Never seen that type of blue on a steel cent . AT IMHO .

 

Did you take the picture yourself? I think there's something wrong with the color saturation.

 

No I did not take the pic.

 

Artificial toning is like cleaning it right?

 

Perception..........that's the real deal.

Only in the sense that both damage the value of the coin, and are things done by people to enhance the saleability of cons. AT is frequently used to hide signs of cleaning, so you might see a coin with both problems. Typically the toning will be very dark in this case.

I have no idea why someone would color a steel cent blue.
