Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 08/27/2017 10:09 pm Another Little Johnnie in the Garage heated coin, again, look at the raised area in center, expanded trapped gasses. The other factor is how much zinc is in copper plate, too much zinc and not enough tin, heated metals like this transfers more zinc to surface, that makes "brass" yellowish look.
