It's blue red and reddish brown.. the blue I couldn't really capture... and the details are great.. and sharp the steps words and date are all so nice... but I'm new.. so what do you all think? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

At one point the entire obverse and some of the reverse attained that dark tone all over. It was put back into circulation and that circulation rub removed the toning from the high points. This gave the coin that lovely dark colors in the tightest spaces and the light areas with the toning removed. I myself absolutely LOVE that look. I would put this in an air tight container so the toning doesn't begin again. Report this Post to the Staff

I like that look, too! No going to make you rich, but certainly a keeper.
