Going through some coins I found this 2014 P quarter that has turned black. Is this normal? I have never seen one like this before. I am always looking for something different.

Environmental toning, nothing unusual.
No way it left the mint looking like that.
Coins can turn many colours depending on
what the surface has been exposed too.

Environmental toning, but cool looking. Keep if you like it or as an example for later comparison.
