 to the forum. They both left the mint the same color. The black one suffers from Environmental Damage. That is, it's come into contact with an unknown substance after leaving the mint. Some substances are chemicals, stains, ground contact, etc.

You're welcome, and  they are cool. I like all denominations of coins, even a few that are damaged rather than errors. If they're interesting, I think most collectors keep them. Find some more that look out of the ordinary, we'll talk about them.

Quote: I found a 1898 penny too.. that's cool.. It certainly is. Just think of who may have held that coin 120 years ago as a newly minted cent! Coins are like little handheld time-capsules.

Welcome to the club! Just from a numismatist stand point, when you say Penny.... I think.....
Image result for Penny (The Big Bang Theory, Kaley Cuoco)
Your above images are a Cent.
Just saying.
