Titles are Important! * So Ive had these 2 Nickels for a while and always wondered what makes them these brownish colors. The top one is more red than the bottom which is a much more brownish, but any feeback would be nice & . Personally I think they look cool even if they are super common. I understand the photo is sideways but the photo editor made it like that. Original photo was taken properly. Report this Post to the Staff

Yes sorry about that. One potential solution is to hold your phone horizontally when taking pictures.
