[QUOTE="alurid, post: 3177404, member: 81991"]Woodies do take time to appear, they are caused by oxidization of the copper. When a copper coin has a mix of different alloy density in it, this effect can happen. The copper "tones/ oxidizes" to different colors because of the mixture of the metal. Coins that have set in storage for a long time can form this toning. Not all coins are able to become Woodies. As for the 1907 , I think the edge has been smushed in due to the coin being in a "Lucky Coin Holder". Look at how long the denticles are along the edge. that is Post Mint Damage.[/QUOTE]
