All Nickels from [B][U]any[/U][/B] year can change to a darker color due to environmental damage. Being buried in soil, sand, dirt and exposure to water, heat and weather can result in the effect you are questioning and it's most likely what you have. They are [U][B]not[/B][/U] all the same color depending on the amount of time and environment it was buried in.. I have over 600 metal detected Nickels and about 80% have Environmental Damage. Here are examples from my stash - Bottom row are normal color [ATTACH=full]721200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]721201[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]721202[/ATTACH] Same thing occurs with Clad Coins These are Quarters - [ATTACH=full]721203[/ATTACH] Can we see a picture if your 1964?[/QUOTE]
