I am getting senile and may have posted this one before, but I just imaged it again, (I think my photo skills are getting better)

Not sure if it may be AT or chemically induced, but I still like the colors.

It does look like some residue, but I like the coin and the color all day.

Such beautiful colours on nickel-brass? And with a palm tree as a bonus, I like.

(I think my photo skills are getting better)

I think so too.
