TheDiv27 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:17 pm I texted my friend, she did weigh it. 5 grams exactly. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97730 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:24 pm Well the weight is spot on for what it should weigh, so I think this coin is just heavily toned or was buried at some point Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

TheDiv27 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:36 pm Is it possible this was accidentally monted on a sheet meant for pennies? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:40 pm Given the weight, not possible. Edited by Coinfrog 07/04/2022 6:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 8:35 pm Well first of all I do not see any steps at all . As far as the color I have to admit I'm stumped . The even all around brown is very odd . I'm going to say not a fake coin , not plated , not a dirt find , not painted , and not any kind of environmental issue . Report this Post to the Staff
silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 9:13 pm Nice fake coin. Compare the realy coin with your and you will see my statement. Report this Post to the Staff
Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 9:34 pm If I had to take a guess I'd say a fountain nickel, sitting around a bunch if cents in a fountain with chemicals. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97730 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 9:40 pm a chemical reaction? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 10:03 pm I agree with Dear! What chemicals could bring the Ni red-brown? Report this Post to the Staff
Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 11:19 pm Quote: What chemicals could bring the Ni red-brown? no idea as I'm not a chemist I do know I have a loonie with even darker colouring then this and have seen nickels with a dark tone like this. If in a fountain I imagine chlorine and maybe a few other chemicals. Other wise no clue. Report this Post to the Staff

Tunnioc Pillar of the Community United States 3181 Posts	Posted 07/05/2022 11:58 am TheDiv27! Looks like a metal detecting find. Remember, nickels are 75% Copper and 25% Nickel. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/05/2022 2:44 pm Probably a metal detector find. I circulation the residue will wear off first on the higher devices: Eventually coin coin will turn black on the brown areas: Just a spender. (unless you want to take images for and one each week when you carry it in your change. Make it a project coin to follow how it slowly changes colors? Report this Post to the Staff
