If you are seeing the blue in the images it is because the Color Balance is off.

That's what I thought, too, Tom, but couldn't finger out why there were blue tinted areas on both sides... thought maybe it was PVC, but seller says there is no color, and attributes the appearance to lighting issues. He says it's an original BU coin...
