moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 09/08/2019 7:18 pm Thank you BS. 99 point something % of the time when you find a coin that appears to be the wrong color, it is either environmental damage or toning. The other 1% is because it is a Coin type a collector is unfamiliar with. Report this Post to the Staff

BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4592 Posts	Posted 09/09/2019 07:53 am I've often thought we should conduct a controlled experiment - with a couple of rolls of new coins and the contents of a soda machine... Soak a selection of coins in a thin layer of each different kind of soda. After a few days or a week, rinse and let dry. Then we would know that that grey-green color is characteristic of spilled Mountain Dew in the cupholder. And the orange is Fanta, etc. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
