I have always loved textile bag toning and am always looking for it. As rare as toned dmpl's, for a coin to acquire a distinct textile pattern it had to have sat pressed against the canvas mint bag undisturbed for about 60 years.
Here's a neat one that originated from the Continental Bank Hoard, I spent nearly 2 years chasing this coin before I finally got her.
