<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dannic113, post: 1681215, member: 35203&quot;]This coin is not one of them but there are some nickels that have an improper metal mix that either has too much copper to nickel ratio or the way it was not completely incorporated together leaves the copper showing. However in both of these genuine examples the copper will be streaked (think &quot;woody&quot; cents) or spotty and never a full blown all over copper color unless it was an error struck on a cent planchet. The coloring is also natural meaning you will see nickel showing in there too with the copper not just a full streak of copper. It is also permanently a part of the coin unlike natural or artificial toning as this occurs when then sheets of metal are mixed and fabricated at the foundry for the mint. See image below so you know what to look for.</p><p>[ATTACH]251802.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
