josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 07/15/2020 12:01 am Looks like a dug coin. I'm guessing the date is a 1998 or 1999. Spender. Report this Post to the Staff

Mydawgz New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 07/15/2020 6:36 pm Thanks Jim. Why the color though? Any idea? Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/15/2020 7:29 pm Colour is from environmental toning/tarnishing, most likely from being buried in acidic soil. We see a lot of these. The toning is considered damage, thus no premium I'm afraid. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5240 Posts	Posted 07/15/2020 8:02 pm Mydawgz, if the ground is acidic and left there over time, it will alter the coloration of a coin. And, btw to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
