I recently bought this 1936 lincoln from a DLRC auction, PCGS graded it 64RB. The first two pictures are from the auction, the last one I took with the coin in hand check out the purple and blue! The grain reminds me of camoflauge.

Looks exactly like tiger stripe camo.

I have a 1939 Lincoln kind of like that. It is golden colored, but there were green gunk on it. I cleaned it off with water, but the green stuff left brown streak spots like yours. It is not toning though.

I was going to say it looked orange and purple, the colours of a certain university I attended where the tiger is our mascot.

I think you misunderstood, but that is okay since I tend to confuse people at times!

My university's colours are orange and purple, our mascot is the tiger. Some renditions of the tiger have orange and purple stripes. Seeing orange and purple tiger stripe toning on a coin is just too cool to me!
