jvcv_0 Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 05:20 am I'd appreciate your thoughts on this one...possible error as word "WE" on obverse seems smudged. Color seems obviously off but is it error or PMD I don't know? I've learned alot here already thanks &! Report this Post to the Staff

lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1255 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 06:28 am That's another environmental damage, I would say a metal detectorist is definitely putting his finds back into circulation in your area! Report this Post to the Staff
NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 11943 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 06:28 am This looks like a buried coin - possibly a metal detector find that's been dug up and put back into circulation.

CJ18850 Pillar of the Community United States 569 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 08:23 am with environmental damage. As a detectorist I dig many every year. Either a ground or water coin. You won't be able to change the color as once the acidic dirt/water is on it, it's cooked. A spender or keeper if you like. I put mine in the rock tumbler to clean before turning into the bank, however they do look cool when finished. Almost a novelty piece in a way. ~Charlie Proud ANA Member #3193 2018 - present.

John1 Bedrock of the Community United States 50225 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 2:46 pm ( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion ) Searched 6.5 +/- Million Cents Since 1971 Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 18486 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 2:49 pm If it were an annealing issue, the entire surface of the coin would be uniform in color. Seeing how I can see the bright shiny surface of the cladding on all 3 sided, tells me that this coin was toned out due to the environment it was in. Collecting since 1972.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 3408 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 6:41 pm AS I stated in another of your posts, not every off color coin you find is an improper annealed coin. They are hard to find. Report this Post to the Staff
