<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MontCollector, post: 2688947, member: 85496&quot;]My wife got this in change a few days ago. In hand the coin presents as a dark grey. </p><p><br /></p><p>The obverse also has straight lines in the toning making me think this may not be toning. I have given it an acetone bath to make sure it wasn&#039;t just dirt or a foreign substance coating it. Came out of the bat just as dark as it went in.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry my pictures don&#039;t do it justice as to how dark the coin actually is. But you can see the lines on the obverse.[ATTACH=full]602745[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]602746[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>So is it toning, environmental damage, or something else?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks...Mont[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
