    Found this on a roll search of about twelve hundred pennies. The picture doesn't do it justice, but the tone is insane.
    The question; does this look like torching? Remember this was found in a roll straight from the bank. Also consider that the reverse doesn't share the same gradient.
    Could it have been left on someones space heater? Where's the line between accidental toning (Somewhere in it's life) coupled with finding it in a bank roll TO flat out artificial?

    Just a guess, but I would say that coin has been sitting in water.
