Bronze would not get that bad that quickly.

I have a bronze coin I made about 6 years ago. It's been handled by more people than I can count, but it sits for months in a box in my garage.

It still looks very much like bronze, just slightly darker in the crevices.

This just looks like piss poor electroplating.

Yeah, if anything when you look at bronze statutes that have been in the elements for decades, the parts that people touch are the shiny, nice-looking parts.
