JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21604 Posts	Posted 07/31/2021 6:09 pm to the CCF Once a CENT leaves the mint, copper can change to many different colours through environmental exposure, chemical reaction, cleaning etc. It can sometimes be hard to say exactly what causes a colour change.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19150 Posts	Posted 07/31/2021 9:35 pm Agree with all above. Might be fun to hang on to cents which have a wide variety of coloring (toning/staining). I have a Lincoln Cent Dansco full of toned cents from 1909 through last year. A number of them may be 'forcibly' toned, but the most interesting examples by year are what I gather.
