After treating bronze disease, wouldn't it make sense to dry the coin completely and put it into an airtight container?
This is why eBay should have an breathalyzer built in. The ridiculous rant that has nothing to do with coins makes my head hurt.
I'm not a fan of the design, so I don't think they'll have long-term aesthetic demand. If past history is any guide, the popularity of the bride...
That's an interesting question. There was a spike in world silver prices around 1907... was that still playing out in 1913?
If it's an error, it could be worth more than the regular issue. I would wait to send it back until you find out more. What's the window of return?
