EML Coin Collector Valued Member United States 193 Posts	Posted 04/21/2024 09:11 am Came upon this in a roll. The toning is very different having a golden oily sheen to it on both sides. Really hard to capture the colors, but here's what I've managed to capture: Marlies Edited by EML Coin Collector 04/21/2024 12:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Really hard to get lighting right sometimes sincce I was trying to capture the oily gold toning! Marlies Edited by EML Coin Collector 04/21/2024 09:38 am Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/21/2024 10:04 am Pretty much looks like normal toning to me. That coin is not one I would keep,but you collect what you like. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 98746 Posts	Posted 04/21/2024 10:08 am Could be an annealing issue and copper has migrated to the surface of the coin - or it was just lightly plated. What is the weight of the coin? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19264 Posts	Posted 04/21/2024 10:29 am I'm thinking subtle toning caused by exposure to environmental agents--not that uncommon. Bottom line--if you like it, keep it. Report this Post to the Staff

EML Coin Collector Valued Member United States 193 Posts	Posted 04/21/2024 10:44 am ==ijn1944== It's such a strange color-not bright silvery so it stands out quite a bit from the other quarters. Marlies Report this Post to the Staff
