<p>[QUOTE=&quot;YoloBagels, post: 3059864, member: 94739&quot;]I think you mean coin toning, which is a phenomenon where the coin metal changes color. This can occur naturally or artificially, and can be worth alot of money if natural. These things happen when the metal reacts with chemicals, such as when silver reacts with sulfur, it creates silver sulfide (which is the color that you see). Most of the time it gives a very pretty color, which can either be rainbow, blueberry, lime green, anything. However there is artificial toning, which definitely doesn&#039;t look as nice as a natural toned coin. Artificial toning is like cleaning a coin, though it is used to decept buyers into thinking they are buying a naturally toned coin when really it is just a doctored coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope I answered correctly. The mint doesn&#039;t create toning, so no it wouldn&#039;t be considered an error coins. Natural toning can give a $50 coin a very high premium.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
