    That is staining or environmental damage.

    One thing you want to look for on an improperly annealed planchet is luster, and this coin doesn’t have any. These surfaces are dull and have a “corroded” look.

    @Stampon... Welcome aboard.... As stated above, that is environmental damage.... Likely lost for a long time and a metal detector found it. Cheers, RickO
