Ever seen a green Washington clad?

Here's a non-SMS coin with pretty unique toning. It's actually greener in hand. I was digging through my coin box today and thought I'd finally image this one.

That's very attractive and quite unusual. Where did you find it?

DHeath

John, thanks! A fellow forum member that knows I love Washington toners sold it to me a few years ago.

Thats a different looking coin.

No but I saw a red one naked. Nice looking coin.

Pleasent Color!

'65 was a good year.

I saw a Seated quarter with that sea-green coloration once, and fell in love at first sight. I couldn't afford it, though. It was a proof with great mirrors beneath the toning- NGC PR66, as I recall. From the 1870's.

That's pretty neat. Is it any greener in person? What do you think led to that coloration?

I love that shade of green toning, looks like peppermint Schnapps.

DHeath

Jerry, I don't remember, but it wasn't much ($20-$30). I think it was a trade.

Neil, yes, it's a little greener in hand, with blue overtones. My best guess about the toning was a broken cello, even though it isn't designated SMS.

Mike I like those too. Here's a bad pic.

I know some of those coins!!
