    I am not sure if that is the correct terminology.
    This happens when a coin is in close or direct contact with the paper sheet in an album.
    Here is one I picked up today.

    Post em if you got em!

    I do believe that @hotwheelsearl has the right words but the transfer comes from this type of situation. upload_2020-11-12_21-53-8.png
    Or it happens when someone forgets to put back a sleeve in an album.

    I refer to them as Whitman toned. I haven't seen one as sharp as the OP coin, though. That's pretty sweet.

    I've never seen them on Lincolns. Very cool @messydesk
    Here is one on a Barber Quarter, I have the matching O but it seems I can't find it in my Photos.

    I have at least one old barber, quarter I think, that has the transfer

    "Album Transfer" is what I've always called them. Interestingly, I was going to post a quiz using one of these coins. IMO, they are very scarce. The OP's example is the best I've ever seen!

    Yeah, it also cost me a pretty good premium. But I just couldn't pass it up.
    Sorry to ruin one of your Quiz's.

    I think the link will work on a computer but not mobile. The guy hid the cert number, so here is a screenshot:
