elpontiff New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 04/18/2026 11:08 pm I have had this coin for over 26 years and it has literally changed colors. Not sure what's going on, but it weighs 12 grams. I can get better pictures tomorrow in the sun so you can see the colors. Pretty cool. These pictures really don't show the hues of colors, gold red, orange, brown and blues.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18627 Posts	Posted 04/19/2026 09:47 am its pretty much impossible to assess these surfaces with all of the blotchy toning on both sides. the coin has been improperly stored for quite a while. humidity could be the culprit. the coin would be on the low end of eye appeal. there is a chance a TPG would call this ED. whatever happened, it cannot be reversed Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73579 Posts	Posted 04/19/2026 10:33 am It's environmental toning. I would put it in a 2x2 to protect it from further environmental damage. Also, only hold the coin by the edge or wear gloves. The coin will get toning and oils from our fingerprints. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
