<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1855923, member: 19463"]As John Anthony pointed out, dropping the coin could be a problem in more than one way. Obviously shag carpet (something we had in 1970 for the young among us) could eat a coin this size but the worrisome part to me is that the coin (and most coins of that period and region) has a crystallized texture which creates dotted lines on which coins can break. Not only would I not drop it on a hard surface but I would not press hard on it or sandwich it in a stack of 102 coins in a 100 coin box.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
