2000p Sacagawea, copper nickel mix???

[LouisaC]

Hey all, been years since I've used this forum and re-registered but this was always my go-to place when coin roll hunting which I just recently got back into. BUT this was not found coin roll hunting. It had been in one of my jars where I keep coins that I just save and only had 2 left. One of those banners popped up on F/B "Check Your Couch Change" and I always look at those because I love looking at coins anyway. One coin was the 2000p Sacagawea dollar that wasn't brass/copper looking but more nickel in color and I remembered one of the two that I had was dirty nickel colored and not nice and copper shiny so I pulled it out. Am I seeing this correctly? Is it questionable enough or worth sending it off to be graded? I'm posting both coins, the copper/brass colored one and the one that appears to be different. I'm a "penny roll hunter" so I have no experience/knowledge with the higher denomination coin errors. Thanks in advance...

I have tumbled some I have found while detecting and they end up looking like that, so before sending it off I would get some more opinions on it.

Will do Boat. We do not have any coin dealers in my area. Even though it's not gold or silver, would a pawn shop be able to test the metal? IF my Whites XLT was working that would probably give me a better idea on the composition. Thank you...

Looks perfectly normal, that's just the way they look after they have worn or aged a bit.

The alloy used oxidizes to a fairly wide array of colors. This is but one.
