biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 3:08 pm Improperly Annealed status cannot confirmed with any certainly because the coin is obviously circulated, environmental damage can also darken a nickel. The presence of original mint luster is the only way to definitively identify an improperly annealed coin. Report this Post to the Staff
BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 3:46 pm biokemist6: According to Coop's post on the link Buddy posted: https://goccf.com/t/179958 "the color does not wear off. The color goes through the surface of the coin." So does this mean a scratch test can be done on the edge to determine if the coin is black throughout indicating Black Beauty OR if shiny silver appears it's a regular nickel with environmental/PMD? Then you don't really damage the coin too badly either. Report this Post to the Staff
