This threepence is graded by PCGS as MS66. The reverse features some interesting rainbow lustre under loupe. It has some yellow toning present over a chrome plated appearance of the obverse. An interesting example straight from a genuine roll. Is it possible that the paper from the roll caused this affect on the coin?
