Citeer: "Idolenz"Where does he state something of unmixing?
The color mostly comes from copper-oxides.
Here and article about Cu-Ni alloys and corrosion (seawater is just faster than sweaty hands and land environment, or being in he ground) LINK
He asked if his coin lost the nickel-part and if the copper is remaining, this implicates 'unmixing' or not? I know it is poor english what I use, but I guess the intention is clear.

Most copper-nickel coins are a homogeneous alloy, but some (USA, Thailand, South Africa) are made in layers. I think the OP was considering the omission or removal of such a layer, which almost never happens.
