spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 11/16/2024 03:48 am If these pics are truly representative of the color, that's quite unusual. It's interesting but leaves me wondering what's actually going on there.

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1484 Posts	Posted 11/16/2024 09:36 am As mentioned above, it's 35% silver. The odd War Nickel mix of silver, copper (56%), and manganese (9%) is known for its yellowiish and/or blackish toning, so this coin has likely had some atypical environmental exposure over the years.
