That is so cool! I have been dreaming of finding a coin struck on a wrong planchet. Did you buy that or did you find it?

That's cool, so I have to ask, is the silver coloration just residue that was on the die ?

Nope , it's the reflection off the blue toning
Here's another pic

A little more light makes a difference...that reminds me...I have a nice blue toned 36-D stashed away somewhere

What a beauty! Congratulations on your acquisition. A wee question... the label says 63 BN, pardon my lack of knowledge, but does that designate 'Brown?'. If so, it seems to be a bit odd.

Yes that stands for brown
The third party graders go on scales of how much red is visible to label cents. I'm not sure of exact numbers but it's close to 95% or more to be labeled RD for red, between 25% and 95% to be labeled RB for red brown and anything less than 25% BN for brown

Nice coin... The mint should start putting 25c on the 1c... It would save money... LOL!!!
