It used to be all red except for just perfectly around all the letter was gray metle when it was struck the lettering float up to die and take off some of the oxidation

Is it anything I think it may be a plant that was exposed to oxygen but not heated too long so the molecules did not migrate

I'm just speculating I'm almost 100% for sure that's not the case but it's just a really weird coin never seen nothing like it

It's picked up the red colour form being buried in soil. Metal detector finds often look like this.

"Senaul" I will try to help you.
You talk about so many speculations.
No lamination on your coin, annealing? where?.
Oxidation? me I do not see (just from photos).
Please post your concern and I will be happy to answer.

On a missing cladding the color will be red in color. When you look at the edge of the clad quarters, the red will be a deep red like a cent.  Also note the strike will be weaker because of the missing height of the planchet. Coins found outdoors tend to be more brown, than red when a cladding is missing:  Detector finds:  The color on coins found outdoors is a stain on the surface of the coin. On the highest devices it will wear off there first:  A color difference is often staining from an event that happened to a coin in circulation like cup holder coins. We see these often. They are just from acid drinks alter the surface of coins. All events that happen to a coin in circulation are not mint errors. They happened after they left the press. So they are not mint errors. |

Sanaul, you are allowed to post more than one sentence in each reply. There is a lot of wasted space in this thread.  |
