It's fairly simple really and I've explained it numerous times in past posts, it's because '86 was a, check that, the pivotal year for two...
Hopefully you also did a thorough job of rinsing in distilled water as the last step.
Member's birthdays only show up when the member has provided the info in their profile - and he hasn't.
What Randy said is correct Theresez13, and on your coin that seam is even visible in the pics you provided. A trace of the seam can even be seen...
You are correct, but so was he. If you are confused as to how that can be, get out your Red Book and simply read what it says ;)
No. And no. The entire idea is to get the coins away from the cardboard and paper. Paper products put off gasses that are harmful to coins. So...
Those containers should be fine, but you also need to follow all the rest of proper storage procedures as described in previous posts in this thread.
There's a problem with that "scale". The limiting criteria, that pretty much everybody agrees with, that defines RED is that 95% or more of the...
John I gotta admit, this was a first for me. I've never heard of calling a dipped gold coin "white gold". I get the reference, I've just never run...

Well, a lot of folks don't realize it but plastic itself is air permeable. Point is it doesn't have anything to do with molding it, no matter how...
You don't. Best you can do is put a desiccant pack in there with it - just like ya do with all other proper storage methods. They'll last quite...
You could try but I doubt acetone would have much if any effect at all. I can see that coin has a few spots of verdigris on it, and maybe some...
LOL ! I think @green18 is gonna beat us both to that :D
I strongly agree. As for your questions - Yes, but you probably won't like it. And yes, unless you do one of two things. The first thing has...
