Hinkle Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 The obverse looks like a shiny plum red , and the reverse is some kind of mix of different colors. Never seen one of these before. How strange. 🤔 what's your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mohawk Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Hey Hinkle, I think your coin is just showing some toning, which isn't unusual for Lincoln Cents. It's not an error, just a result of the copper in the coin reacting with other chemicals in it's environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's what makes it really interesting coin roll hunting. 🧐😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also good that you ask about what you find....it's how you learn in this hobby. I started out in the hobby roll hunting myself and I will still buy roll sometimes just for fun, and I don't even collect US coins anymore! It's a great pastime. Good luck in your hunting! ~Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
