Spence Moderator United States 34453 Posts	Posted 02/28/2024 3:54 pm @mike, yes exactly what @numis said. We most often see this with coins previously buried: not a mint error but rather surface staining.

Dearborn Moderator United States 99061 Posts	Posted 02/28/2024 8:40 pm If it were an annealing issue, the coin would still have it original luster and be black in color. This coin is just stained.
