Nice color on that Victoria cent!  I think the planchets were darkened before striking.  |

Its hard to capture the iridescent gun metal blue toning. Finest known Mexico large centavo (NGC 67).   |

Beautiful centavo! Something about those older copper Finland coins--they really tone well! |

Nice "woodie"! This thread is mostly to post toned copper coins, which tone distinctly different from bronze coins like later UK pennies--but nice coin all the same! |
