Last number of the date looks like a "2"...don't see any coins minted with the last date of "2". Odd or did I goog?
THANKS

Hmm, you're right. I totally overlooked that.
I'll do some more research and get back to you.

Low grade silver coins, billon, can take on some very strange colors. Mostly though they look like copper not brass, maybe it's been cleaned by some enterprising "coin doctor" somewhere along the road.
Non illegitimis carborundum est. Excellent advice for all coins.

Wonder if there was an attempt to mimic a "gold" coin???
