I have a complete mini-set of these from 1948 to 1967 in an old Meghrig album, which has (since 1967) produced the following reverse toning..

The whole right obverse half of this 1975-S proof set cent is toned an iridescent reddish color...

Cracked a 55S OBW and found 3 of these inside. This irridecent, monochromatic, light green toning is very rare. I've only seen it on a few coins myself and a few someone else posted of their coins.

So happens I ran across this beauty too at my LCS. I did not slab it. Of course, I couldn't leave his shop without it since it matched the other three I found.

If anyone has a copper coin with this specific monochromatic green toing, I'd like to see it.
