From the amount of wear on the coin, I would say it is probably natural re-toning from an old cleaning. That coin should likely not have that...
This is why I try to never leave photos just sitting on my camera's memory. I usually get them off as soon as possible.
Got this 1918-D Mercury out of the junk silver bin. I'd say it's XF and a decent coin.
A dateless Standing Liberty Quarter, today. Not bad. Along with a Canadian 1 and 5 cent and a UK 10 pence.

That's a good price with 30 mins left in the auction. Steps look pretty full, but there appear to be some significant hits on Jeff's chin and jaw...
