I Know You Have Gas.....

......so do I. I need a Tums! Fortunately or unfortunately, this coin is a member of the American coin family. Lots see yours. Whoever has the most bubbles wins. Why do I think @BadThad will be the winner here?!?!

Come on guys, if we pull together we can beat him!

I've seen some very bad ones!

 

Seriously, will these corrode though in time or are they considered to be fairly stable? Thanks

 

My guess is that they would be fairly stable if you don't mess with them and keep them protected. Ones in circulation will probably break open in time.

 

Is this your coin?

 

These remind me of the opening to the Shel Silverstien's poem titled "Sick"...

"I cannot go to school today said little Peggy Ann Mcay. I have the measles and the mumps, a gash a rash and purple bumps"

 

You have got to see these lincolns when they come out of the ground found when metal detecting.

 

Yes. I won't post something I don't own without saying so.

 

seen many many of these....

 

Your house must look like mine, coins in every room. Under the bed, sofa, in the closets, every draw, in the shed, etc.. I can't find anything either. I knew I saw the 21D Mercury somewhere?!?!

Only kidding. That's why I bought a coin inventory database. Now I know what I have (Denomination, Date, Photos, Condition, etc..) and where it is.

 

Very interesting. Do these carry premiums or are they considered damaged? Cool coins regardless.

 

Damaged, IMO. As reactive as zinc is, I'm thinking lacquer-coating (shellac-based lacquer, not acrylic) coins ought to make a comeback.

Bob, do you know if yours "turned" in the slab or were graded with the bubbles? It'd be an interesting insight into how the TPG's view them, and I'm honestly kind of surprised they straight-graded.

 

i consider it damage...http://www.error-ref.com/?s=plating+blisters
