I don't have a specific explanation for the copper-colored patch, but that could be environmental exposure as well I suppose.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 8:54 pm Note the areas that are normal colored? This is where the coating on the coin was rubbed off. If this were a Copper issue, the copper color would not rub off. More just a spender, than to waste much time on these. Report this Post to the Staff
