[QUOTE="quarter-back, post: 1961729, member: 47022"]I suspect that spirityoda is on to the issue. The place where the fresh looking wear is on the high points. Those areas may be kept from toning with the rest of the coin because normal wear keeps setting it back. This not a color issue. The copper areas are on the same spot on both coins with the lesser worn coin being slightly more extensive.
