The watermelon-toning reminds me of some of the moderns on the BST forums here.

Looks AT to me. I've never seen anything like it, and I think it looks suspect.

Some body really screwed up a nice coin. Notice the seller does not give any description and the coin is raw. My guess is that it was low grade maybe PR62 and someone was trying cover the hairlines with AT and the experiment went bad.

 

It will be interesting to see the final price.

I've looked at this sellers auctions before and they seem to specialize in problem coins. They have so many that are obviously cleaned and/or re-toned that I would not be comfortable buying anything from them.

WOW! Got Green?

[BillJones]

Yes, if the color really what we see in that photo, it's totally bogus. And they missed up a coin from a Proof only issue with a mintage of less than 2,000.

Call me crazy but I like that Green! AT or NT matters not to me on this proof issue!

[TomB]

AT.

[MBA101]

The photos look enhanced.

[gmarguli]

Must be NT. I hear you can't get green as a color for AT.

I went through his present listings and many of his current coins for sale look AT, polished or cleaned. It always astounds me that dealers such as this one can sell almost 1800 mostly cleaned or manipulated coins and only have one negative feedback (98.7% positive) a year. I guess you can fool most of the people most of the time.
