cdegroat New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 05/12/2009 10:59 am I've come across two of these SBAs gold colored. It is obvious a coating as the 1979 is showing wear on the rim and Susan's cheeks. Any one have any information about them? I can't find anything about them, although I might not be looking in the right places. In the photo the 1979 is pictured to the right next to a "normal" SBA for comparison Report this Post to the Staff

wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 05/12/2009 12:53 pm I've also seen SBAs colored red or blue... for identification purposes so they won't get confused for a quarter. Please tell me, is the yellow color plated on or lacquered (like tree-sapped) on? Report this Post to the Staff
cdegroat New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 05/12/2009 9:13 pm Thanks for the replies!! Plated or Lacquered? I don't think I am educated enough to know the difference. I will try to take new photos with different lighting/perspective tomorrow or next. Thanks Chuck Report this Post to the Staff
