At least it seems so me, Mr. Color Blind. If this is natural, what could have caused it? I though about soaking it in acetone, but then I might end up with a normal looking coin. Thoughts anyone? Also picked up this Indian Head cent for $5 at a coin show. It can't be NT, but it sure is pretty</p><p> </p><p>Thanks, Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
