The image there is blurry. Not sure why my phone made it blurry.
But, if someone actually buffed out the lines(not wear) then that person is got a lot of time on there hands.

I kinda think if you took a stained coin and just rubbed it on a stiff carpet for a while, that could accomplish what we see here.

Unfortunately, I am too familiar with buffed coins, during my heavy buying of Morgan dollar lots in the past.   -makecents-

So, I came across this article and wanted to share as well. It seems that the quarter in the article below seems duller than the one I have. Improperly Annealed Planchet: https://boards.ngccoin.com/topic/41...ed-planchet/This is the side image:  *** Edited by Staff - Please actually read the warning next time. *** |

In the edge it looks as though there may have been "black" oxidation.

What you have has absolutely nothing to do with an improperly annealed planchet.

Nope. It's what we already explained to you.

I agree with the above. It's just environmental staining.
Errers and Varietys.

But it is a pretty nice looking "circulation cameo" - which is another way of saying cool but only worth face value! |

 with above, the coin has toned dark by environmental conditions, then possibly polished to remove the high point toning. being that we can see the shiny cladding now, precludes any improper annealing, because improper annealing will darken the metal at all levels of the metal, not just the surface. |

It looks cool, but it is just environmental tone/damage.
