BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4588 Posts	Posted 07/14/2016 5:39 pm True gold or yellow? The copper plating gets poisoned by zinc and if they don't change it out soon enough, the coin looks yellow. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
