I'm using the seller pics instead of my own here, they capture the toning much better than my pictures do. This is a gilt brass coin, it is a combination of the brass wearing off and the toning of the brass left on it that gives it the coloration.

I find the subtle pastel hues of orange and blue of the edge toning on this York County, ME Tercentenary commemorative half dollar to be attractive! Overall, the coin has a satiny, lustrous appearance. 1936 York County, ME Tercentenary Half Dollar  If you'd like to learn more about the design and background of this coin, check out: 1936 York County, ME Tercentenary Half Dollar.
