<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 960583, member: 19065&quot;]I don&#039;t know what caused the toning but I assume the plastics the coin had been sealed in. I bought it sealed this way from a coin shop when the coin was new. It had no color and I always thought it was proof in appearance too. I never much had it out in the light as it was kept in the bank for many years and a while back I noticed it had that color starting to build around the edges, mostly on the temple side. I sold all my pandas as I didn&#039;t want to deal with Chinese coins and their low quality issues anymore so I can&#039;t really investigate this much further. If there was any confusion, that ring shape in the center of each side is the reflection of my camera lens off the coin. The surfaces were not mirror-like but were reflective and troublesome to get images without much reflections on them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
