I just put this coin in its hole to compare with the others so no one will think I set my camera up lol .... It's a very exquisite toning ... what could be the cause for it ? Thanks in advance !

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19935 Posts	Posted 06/26/2016 12:40 am It's an EF coin, looks to have an old cleaning which likely caused the toning. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

YNumismetals Collector Valued Member United States 354 Posts	Posted 06/26/2016 5:47 pm Yup older style cleaning methods could have caused the purplish look. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15403 Posts	Posted 06/26/2016 8:34 pm Indeed .. circulated to the VF/XF level and re-toned from an old cleaning. Not certifiable as problem-free ... but an album hole filler if you enjoy it. David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
