<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 681456, member: 5233"]Actually, gold does tone. It is very nonreactive but it does have some reactivity so it does tone. But, being that this coin is in the bezel...I would imagine it was used as jewelry or something in the past which means it may have been polished with chemicals and so forth. So, the colors you see might be a result of that or could be actual toning. Hard to say without pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It can.
