Not sure if improper annealing will product that rainbow effect on just one side, it appeared to be more like artificial created toning.
Sorry silviosi, it doesn't look natural toning.

Appears to be toning. I've never seen an annealing issue that had colors like this.

Mac, till now I never see a fake toning respecting the spectrum. I know theoretically could be done, but till now never see. I keep my opinion of toning in development.

Nice toning of some sort but agree it doesn't look natural. Annealing errors don't have blue/green characteristics.

looks like a black eye

For the record,i would have totally labeled this coin as damaged if it wasnt for the fact that it came from a brand new roll of 2020ds. Genuine toning usually starts at the rim and works its way to the center,flawlessly transitioning in color. I thought it was neat,and ill hold onto it regardless

the toning do not start from the rim all the time. The toning start where the environment is present. The toning it is the effect of the environment.

PS: By the way, a toning coin has more value then a improper annealing.


@sil, sorry to nitpick, but I'm not sure that I 100% agree with this statement as toning, especially AT, can reduce the value of a coin.

However it happened, naturally or otherwise, it does not seem to be an annealing issue.

This could have been on the stock material. Did you check for a DDR on this one? Looks like something could be no the door?

I say it is not annealing.

Spence, I really do not know the exact prices fluctuations. What I know it is some nice spectrum toning can brink high premium with the wright collector.

If it came from an OBW roll, I would have to infer that there was some substance on this coin that produced the effect...especially if other coins weren't affected.

It may be an OBW, but who knows what happened in between the mint and the bank that rolled it. Once the coin was struck is was dumped into a bin or bag first - which is why you see all the dings on it.

Also why was this old topic brought back to life?

If not from an mint roll I would have thought heat as well, looks like very short contact with high heat, if this was the case there would be an "off colour" spot on the rim as well in this spot.
