I bet the color change was due to Hydrogen Peroxide. My guess was that someone was using Hydrogen Peroxide to reverse oxidation on a 6¢ James A. Garfield and some of it splashed on the 1¢ Benjamin Franklin (Sc# 552/632).
Thanks for the info! I have a variety of color varieties and/or changlings that are fun to look at but not sure what they are. I have an orange Scott c25 as well a pair of scott 822 that has a shiny substance on parts of them that changed the ink on it or didn't let the ink adhere.
