4 theories...

A) Natural Toning by putting it a box of Lucky Charms
B) Rainbow Brite's pocket change
C) Homemade gay pride parade token
D) A greedy leprechaun put a quarter at the end of his rainbow and kept the gold

Gotta be one of these

He should have reversed the colors for the tails side to reflect the secondary rainbow. ;)

Or maybe it is simple acknowledgement that the reverse is at 180 degrees to the obverse and is already reversed.

Wow!

Of course this makes it a mirror image of the rainbow and the secondary rainbow is not a mirror image.

This guy is inscrutible. Anyone else notice it's signed. I can't make out the letters though.

Wait, gay pride rainbows have a standard color pattern?

Careful heat treatment may fix it.

Always fun to find stuff like that in change/CRH'ing. I have a jar set aside for finds like that.

@jack jeckel - color order is correct.

A quick Wiki search reveals the gay pride flag only has six colors since about 1979 so this is likely not related to gay pride:

No. I didn't know there was a standard pattern. When I lived in Hawaii I'd always see the rainbow flags above the bars that were gay friendly. Never noticed a pattern though. Guess I never really paid attention
