Is this a natural toned 2 cent?

It is a nice looking coin, but sadly it's not natural. The big give away on the is the purple - pink toning on the reverse. A coin doctor took a nice Mint State piece and enhanced it. Sorry, but I don't think that it will grade.

I agree with Bill. It looks like it was dipped, turned out too bright, and someone used some kind of technique to apply darker areas. I've seen very similar effects from poorly done "Deller's Darkener" applications.
