Seems to be a lot of fingerprints, possibly accounting for the duller surfaces in some areas.

Quote: They are clad coins Not according to the information under "US Coin Facts" on the sidebar. One of the sources must be wrong.

This is pretty cool! Now that you've resolved this clad thing, can someone conform if this could possibly be a missing clad or pal her error? Lol! This is fun!

Quote: I'm thinking environmental tarnishing/discolouration. I'm in agreement If you leave it outside in the sun for a period of time then pick it up both sides will look different. the side facing down will still be shinny.

I do not think it is missing clad, per say. Either Enviromental toning or circulation wear. John1

What's the mintmark on this one? From the photos it looks like an impaired proof with a little toning.

Could have been an end coin in a roll.

It's funny, but I found 2 more Presidential dollars with the same dull obverse and shiny reverse. I'm puzzled! Can all 3 be environmental?

Here are the other pictures of my 2 other coins with 2 different color sides. One is in the previous post. So I have 3 in all. I'd really appreciate your opinion. Thanks

I definitely find it strange that these 3 have a mat finish on the obverse and shiny reverse. Help? John Quincy Adams S 2008 James Garfield P 2011 Ulysses Grant P 2011
The first one is the 2008 S The other 2 are 2011 P
