Catracks Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 06/29/2019 10:34 pm Is this normal? I've never seen a penny this color, but also haven't been looking at pennies like I am now. The picture is with another 2013 penny so you can see the difference I'm referring to. Thanks everyone :) Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7140 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 12:27 am I believe it's just toning due to being in circulation..nothing special,unless you like it...I do fill a folder with nicely toned ones Report this Post to the Staff
Catracks Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 12:33 am I kind of figured it was just some weird toning thing going on. I love it and am definitely keeping it! Thank you & Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 02:43 am I assume you are asking about the coin on the left? If so, it may just be toning, but it could also be a very thin layer of lacquer. I have seen that same yellow tint on lacquered coins before. Just a thought.

Like people, coins are a product of their environment. ANA member - PAN Member - BCCS Member There are no problems only solutions - the late, great John Lennon Report this Post to the Staff
Catracks Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 10:15 am I'm actually starting to see beauty in some coins...it's kind of funny, because I've never paid attention before. I hate to think what I've missed over the years! Report this Post to the Staff
