I have tried googling and cannot find any information in relation to a 2002 year of the outback coin I've come across. The colour is slightly off, kinda bronze-ish. It appears I good condition for its age but there is some strange I just can't put my finger on. Below are some pics, you can see it better when the camera is on an angle. Thanks :) Report this Post to the Staff

Identity was never an issue. And no, it has nothing to do with being wiped clean. I guarantee that given a heavily knocked around coin and an almost UNC coin (like the ones pictured), no matter how many times you wipe them BOTH clean they will still look the same. A new coin will have light reflected off the surface evenly. The more a coin is knocked around the more the reflected light is scattered thus dulling the surface. It's merely physics in action.
