<p>[QUOTE="raider34, post: 1134164, member: 16402"]My first thought was that it was lightly wiped, and then it began to tone. But, I have a similar thing happening with a bunch of Proof Jeffersons I have in my Dansco album. They are developing a light milky toning with some rainbow colors around the rim (similar to your coin), and the same thin parallel lines are showing up in the fields, but they end at the devices (not like with your coin). The majority of the coins came directly from mint sets and after looking at them, I'm certain they weren't wiped, and it's just the natural effect of the toning. </p><p><br /></p><p>I'm not 100% sure the same is true with your coin, but I'm leaning that way. If you're not particularity attached to the coin, or the toning, you could dip it, and see if it removes the lines (and that there's no signs of damage underneath them). Acetone, wouldn't affect the toning, you would need to use a coin dip like E-Z-est.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
