<p>[QUOTE="gsimonel, post: 4006777, member: 82549"]I think that's highly unlikely. It would take much longer for normal wear and tear to remove the patination from the high points of a coin like this than it would for it to simply darken like it is now. In my experience, coins with bare metal tend to darken within a few years of being exposed to air. If forced to guess, I'd say the OP was probably cleaned around 10-15 years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
