NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17906 Posts	Posted 07/19/2013 02:38 am Cupro-nickel coins often go red like this if buried in the ground for a while. When metal-detecting in the UK I've often found 5p, 10p, 20p and 50p coins that have turned a similar colour. My guess is that someone dug it up and spent it.
