FA: SLQs -- Rainbow toning?

Here's a picture of one of 11 SLQs I have up for auction -- all uncleaned.
I'm advertising it
as having natural rainbow toning, but thought I'd double check here to see
if you all agree that the toning on this can be accurately described as
rainbow. I seem to recall some controversy expressed as to exactly what
coloring can be called rainbow. Thanks.

Looks more like peripheral toning to me, sometimes called album
toning. The toning on your coin, the combination of the russet at the
periphery, the blue in the fields, and the neutral gray of the
highpoints, is attractive, no matter what you call it.

It is a subtitle. Costs fifty cents here in the US. Note: It is not searchable
in titles, so its usefulness is undermined, IMHO...
