Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 05/28/2021 3:22 pm @alex, the best way to determine if you have an off-metal strike is to weigh the coin and compare with the mint specs. In this particular case, I agree with @numi that your coin is most likely toned/stained due to chemical or environmental exposure.
