SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 12/05/2020 12:23 am Ah okay I see what you mean. Sadly that isn't anything special, just environmental toning. When coins spend time out in the elements, they tend to form dark yellowish, brown, or even blue colors on the plating. There are examples of more severe toning, where the coin has large amounts of the color spectrum on it. However, as mentioned, this coin is nothing special. Just worth one cent.
