I have never seen a Lincoln Shield cent with this coloring of finish. I don't think it is a marker that someone took to the shield cent as the luster changes as I rotate the coin in the light.

Has anyone here seen a Lincoln Shield cent or any other coin for that matter with this type of color?

FYI: It is always best to take the coin out of a holder before taking pics whenever possible.

Copper can take on almost any color under the right environmental conditions.
