[QUOTE="Swan, post: 2956274, member: 84455"]This is referring to how the planchet was laying in the annealing drum when it dried. You must not have read this part. "See the edge photo (#3) - it looks like a normal BU Quarter - the copper core shows a nice normal red color - that's because although the planchet itself (on a genuine mis-annealed planchet) would have the dark color on the smooth edge, once it's struck in the collar, and ejected, that dark color is removed from the reeding due to the ejection of the now-coin from the collar."[/QUOTE]
