Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 04/30/2025 1:08 pm What I have against it being an annealing issue is there isn't a smooth transition from copper to silver color. There is no way heat would travel as ragged as that edge line appears. Could be a thin plating. Report this Post to the Staff
