Just extreme die wear. That is what you are seeing. Not a plus for the coin. Just a senior die struck your coin. Thus it looks different than fresher die states. as many as 54% of the coins can be in this die state on the dies.  |

that is a crazy looking Sac dollar. I would have said a light coating of acid did this.

Thanks for that info Datadragon.
Interesting to say the least but I'm wondering how the owners of the coin in the link were able to get the coin verified. Hmmmm....

John1 had posted a link with the history of the experimental rinse above but many dont always click links and then read the info. Essentially there are apparently 2,500 of the 2001-p but about 10 are also known on 2000-p. PCGS recognizes the 2001p and ANACS does, and places like great collections will both generally grade and then auction the coin and you can email them in advance before sending. However here we are just speculating that because these exist there is always a possibility of being one so worth to look into with people who have the knowledge to identify yes or no as I have never seen one of those yet in person, but normally otherwise its just some form of toning or chemical alteration.

I have read the link on the experimental rinse a few times. It would be cool if it were one of those, but every graded one I have seen is more brown and not all grainy like this one. Its circulated, but it doesn't have a great deal of wear, and it's not toning. Is Coop right that a worn die can produce this evenly applied effect? Is is acid? That is kinda what I was thinking, but if acid bath, why/how would that happen? Who would deliberately and carefully time an acid bath for a dollar coin? Is it different enough to take to someone for evaluation?
