Would this 1999 Pennsylvania Quarter be considered a missing partial clad coin? or any information would be appreciated. Thanks

Not missing any clad. Looks like something was covering a portion of the quarter
while the rest of the coin was exposed to the environment darkenning it.

A cup holder coin. Part of the coin was protected with another coin and this one was on the bottom where the oose, happens in the holder and stained. The other coin on top of this coin protected it. If it were missing a cladding, what color would you expect to see. Note on the outer edge of these coins. The copper layer is what you would expect to see on a missing clad coin.

Note how the strike on this one is strong on the copper colored areas. That means the clad was missing pre-strike.

Post strike peel, leave the design of the devices weaker on the remaining ghost image:

Same for cladding that was peeled off post strike:

Note the area was struck, but then peeled off the coin later.

Agree. Appears to be a stain issue.

OK, one more question. Should I try to clean this coin? if yes, with what?

Why? It is only a face value coin. No premium for stains on the surface of a coin. Just a spender.

That is a stain, another quarter was resting on top of this one, protecting it from the elements. Which is why you see that only the outside of the arc is toned.

Chemically stained coin. And never clean any coin! Many coins have been ruined by good intentions.
