coinhusker26 Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 8:56 pm Not sure who or how exactly but it's absolutely black as can be and in great shape. Not a single speck of nickel or shine on it. Weight is correct so it's not a planchette error, just curious how this could be done so well. Pretty darn cool to me.

Dearborn Moderator United States 98440 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 9:49 pm yup, this one certainly is blackened. extreme environmental toning/coloring. This one is so uniform, I wouldn't be surprised if it was spray painted. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
