What would cause one side of a coin to have a matte finish with no shine at all? When looking at the edge it still looks like it has a layer over the copper. I also have an 84 D with the same issue.

nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 07/22/2019 1:32 pm Your coin probably sat in one place for a long time, perhaps reverse down on wood, or reverse up exposed to elements. The obverse was not exposed to the same thing. Report this Post to the Staff
Valhallabound Valued Member United States 108 Posts	Posted 07/22/2019 10:25 pm Thanks everyone for the help. It doesn't look like there is any damage at all to the devices so I didn't initially think environmental damage but weird things happen to the finishes. That's the second one I have found. I appreciate the help. Report this Post to the Staff
