<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3562953, member: 112"]I can say this much, that brownish purple shade of color is not unusual at all for ASEs. Back in 2000 I bought a roll of new ASEs, put each one in an Air-Tite and then put all of them in a Tupperware container, with only them in there, and stored them away. Within about 3 months every single coin had that same brownish purple shade of toning starting on both obv and rev. Within a year every coin had significant toning of that same color, not on the entire coin but in various patterns. I sold every one for a significant premium. Each of the following 2 years, I did the exact same thing, bought a new roll, stored them the same way, same color toning appeared on every one. Sold all of those too.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, while I definitely find the pattern of toning on the OP coin unusual, that specific color rings true. Does that mean with any degree of certainty that it's NT ? No, because anything mother nature can do, man can as well with only a little effort.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
