Copper wash or just rust wash on it. I can't quite tell what it is but I don't think it's mint error.
acanthite, thanks for the picture. May I kindly know if this particular coin that you are showing is painfully expensive? A rough estimate will be...
Could have been copper washed or plated.

Merry Xmas! As well as, I'll make this a coin related post too ;) [img]
