<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1768201, member: 29239"]non cents has told you the truth. for some reason all of our newer clad coinage will tone to a deep copper or deep brass color if they are left exposed to the air or a piece of paper.I believe this is because of whatever that was in the wash the mint run them thru because if a new coin is washed with soapy water or carried in a pocket for a while it won't do this so bad. I have thousands of the state quarters and new nickels that looks almost exactly like solid copper and some are a deep brass color from natural toning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
