ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19277 Posts	Posted 11/26/2015 5:42 pm Found this in a collection of old flips. Very unique coloration in the planchet, more evident on the obverse--streaks of green and orange. The streak above the date is a metallic purple. Streaks in the upper left quadrant of the reverse are also metallic purple--see where the streak crosses the C in Cent. Report this Post to the Staff

JDRMCB Pillar of the Community United States 616 Posts	Posted 11/26/2015 6:23 pm Wow! Those are some wild "neon" oxidation hues!. But does anyone else see what appears to be a faint "D" OMM to the NE of the "S"? Here's an enlargement of the OP's image pointing to the area in question. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/26/2015 10:55 pm On a OMM (Over Mint Mark) it would be raised. This looks level to the field so it might be a stain that looks like a D. Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 11/26/2015 11:03 pm I agree with coop as I also see a B under the "D" Very nice wood jin! Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19277 Posts	Posted 11/27/2015 12:01 am The appearance of a phantom D is influenced by a minor stain coming out of the base of the 4. I turned the coin under strong light to observe from other angles--under a loupe. No D that I can detect...same for the B. Report this Post to the Staff
