I was about to toss this into the coppers bin, but after a second glance thought it was interesting enough to get a second opinion, or three. Looks like some crazy airbrush or sandblast going on. Thoughts? Thank you in advance! Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74449 Posts	Posted 05/11/2024 7:53 pm I know that heat can artificially tone coins, which is why I said that. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
