<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevin Mader, post: 6455609, member: 106826&quot;]Possibly.&nbsp; It&#039;s difficult to say from a photo but relative to the earlier post by Datdarenickelguy...it looks similar.&nbsp; I can identify a 1959 Black Beauty since it is a homogenous look, but the more recent annealing issue looks blotchy in contrast.&nbsp; You have the blotchy look, but the reverse is more convincing than the obverse.&nbsp; That said, the specimens we looked at earlier weren&#039;t convincing to me...so who is to say.&nbsp; You have the specimen in hand.&nbsp; You would need to see if two other possibilities exist.&nbsp; Is it stained or is something environmental going on.&nbsp; Soaking in acetone might lift a stain or a soak in distilled water.&nbsp; Environmental is a another story though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
