Curious about this 1967 Lincoln Cent; my picture does not accurately reproduce the greenish color of the coin. It also weighs 3.06 g.

The color is from the environment. Being out in the public and handled for that many years. The weight is right.

Copper can take on many different colors under different environmental conditions.

Off colored coins other than the normal color are due to Environmental Damage

Environmental toning/tarnishing, basically normal from everyday handling.

RhythnDude to CCF: To me It looks like someone has coated It with something I have seen MANY coins in my years but NEVER one this color, From Circulation the high points have been worn off. The GOD looks a lil thick can you get closer pictures?
