I suspect the material, in this case the red "cloth", released some type of environmental damage. It does not increase value and may make them difficult to sell. Report this Post to the Staff

Ballyhoo Pillar of the Community United States 1613 Posts	Posted 10/18/2019 5:15 pm I would agree with the above since I have a few from the eighties which exhibit this same characteristic. Personally, I like the look. Especially nickels in shades of blue/violet. As for value, that's a tough call. There are a select group of toned collectors who pay a premium, which would depend on grade and/or third party certification.
