Greenstang Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Looks like it may have had some heat applied to it. Not an error though as it didn't look like this when the coin was struck. Link to post Share on other sites

Mohawk Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 To me, it looks like it sat in a puddle of water with gasoline in it for a while. I've seen many cents that have that kind of rainbow effect on them from the exposure to the water and gasoline. That's my vote on the issue. Link to post Share on other sites

Never seen a copper clad coin do that so it has to be heat one side or chemical damage I do not believe this is a natural occurance Edited May 6, 2019 by jgrinz Link to post Share on other sites
