<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 8061575, member: 19250&quot;]Jim I agree somewhat but that coin has terminal cancer...rot like this as well carbon spots on nickels just cannot not be stopped. I would be afraid it would turn to a pile of green medal.</p><p>A woman came to me one time with a roll of IHC they were wrapped in a red wrapper the type the banks gave&nbsp; out in th 50&#039;s-60&#039;s . She had found the roll in the garage where her husband had left them.</p><p>Each coin of 50 were better dates indian head cents.&nbsp; Some how there must of been some small current that had caused them to break down.</p><p>Like a zinc sacrifical anode on an outboard motor,&nbsp; each cent had red dust on the obv. And rev.&nbsp; They all were wore down to the point you could see the devices on the coin but couldn&#039;t feel anything they were smooth,dust covered . Quite a few 1870&#039;s and late 60&#039;s. </p><p>I&#039;ve never seen a roll of copper that was turning to dust. Each coin was half the thickness of a regular cent.</p><p>The crazy part the wrapper had no signs of anything that may of caused a chemical reaction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
