<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbensteele, post: 1560028, member: 41740&quot;]Hello, Im new here, so please bare with me if im in the wrong location for this question.</p><p>Im a cashier and I see coins all day and im used to seeing plenty of odd coins. For the last few months I have come across plenty of nickels , all shiny, good detail and the kind of silver color and shine you expect, but every single 1999 nickel I find is dull, no typical shine and flat gray, but has every bit of detail every other nickel has. Ive attempted to clean various 1999 nickels with vinegar, lemon juice, toothpaste and plain water, they all come out just as dull and gray as they were before though newly clean.</p><p><br /></p><p>What could the reason be, they arent ruined by acid, they are usually very decent looking just ordinary scratches and such.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would scan or take a pic of the coin but none of them show the dull look.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
