[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3353040, member: 77814"]scraped post 1982 cents - aka "zincolns" because they have a zinc core and are thinly copper plated. They are a metal which hopefully will be the first object any sulfides or other air pollutants will attack versus the objects you want to protect. I refer the paper strips versus other metal coins due to their lightness, low cost (yes more than a penny) and won't scrap against anything. For instance: [url]https://silverguard.com/pages/3m-anti-tarnish-strips-faqs[/url] [B]Q. What are 3M Anti-Tarnish Strips?[/B] A. They're special absorbent paper that protects metal jewelry and other items from unsightly discoloration and tarnish, especially during shipping and storage.
