    I wouldn’t be surprised if it was some cello break and chemical contamination

    I guess it’s junk silver now.

    Yeah, that appears to be something other than a normal toning? I could be wrong?

    You can break open and try a dip. If it's a normal tone, the Ezest/MS 70 would completely remove the tone. If no change or little change, than most probably something weird. Just as you mentioned.

    As a musician, I opened this thread glad to not see a split Stradivarius with a title like that!

    I suppose a split would affect the tone...

    Common for 1961 and 1962 proof sets. Sometimes the toning on one or more coins can be nice. More often, not so much. Many sealed 1961 and 1962 sets from hot humid climates look like this when opened. Less so for other dates.

    And don't let these coins distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table."
