[QUOTE="Boike, post: 102921, member: 4729"]Good evening. Wondering if any of you could help me out? I've "accumulated" coins from circulation for years (and, of course, from time to time, rolled them and cashed out), and recently began researching the collecting of coins. Anyway, I have this 2000-P Sacagawea from somewhere, and the toning is not like any other I have seen. A brief review of the coin on the internet reveals that an "experimental rinse" process from the mint that was used minimally in 2000 results in toning that appears to be similar. So, do you think that this coin has just toned strangely (the other 2000-P coins in the same stack DO NOT have this coloring), or is this an experimental rinse coin? I have no idea where the coin is from, but my best guess is change in a post office vending machine sometime in the last few years. I have attached an image of the obverse & reverse. Any help, thoughts greatly appreciated. Chris[/QUOTE]
