    Very cool and unusual reverse toning.

    I do not know how the reverse tarnished like that... I would like to know.... So I can be sure not to allow any of my coins to enter such an environment.....Cheers, RickO

    Almost like a quarter was laying on top of it for a very long time in a leather purse

    Ah the leather purse schtick. Someone must have made a mint selling all the leather purses I have heard about as the origin of otherwise questionable toning.

    If I had to wager a guess it was dipped and put into a cheap cardboard coin display or holder as a slider-ish common date in a coin shop in the 80s before the Vam craze.

  • No. Old wood coin train with no liner. The raw wood probably created the environment that oxidized the coin around the backing.

    I wonder if a smaller coin laid on top of the dollar for many years while the coins were in a vault.
