The black colour is simply from environmental damage. A chlorinated pool might do it, burial in the ground in certain types of soil might do it.

Yes sap was thinking it would be that on black 5 cent I also found these two 20 cent coins out of 10 rolls.   Not the best but it's something and it's better than nothing.
