Most likely environmental toning of some sort.
It didn't leave the mint looking like that.

It's 59 years old. It's seen some stuff.

It's worth face value.

Agree, just some sort of environmental toning. Nickels can tone in a wide variety of colors.

By the way, to the forum!

Honestly, looks more like dirt than toning to me.

Agree this is toning caused by the environment the coin has experienced. It happens a lot.
