CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 11/19/2018 3:40 pm Hello. I've had this coin for some time which is why it's in a mylar, and I thought it was toning on the coin and not copper showing through up until now. It could still be toning but I wanted to make sure it wasn't something else. Thank you for your time. -CoinHunter27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

A closer view would tell us more. In the 2X2 the glare hides the actual coin. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 11/19/2018 4:20 pm I removed it from the 2x2 and found it was rainbow colored more than it is copper like. So I threw it back. Thanks for your input coop. I'll most likely be back with more questions. Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
