<p>[QUOTE="TheBigH, post: 287005, member: 9866"]Well, I really know nothing about ancient coins, but I've dug a few teens and twenties wheat cents that have that same deep green color. I dug an 1908 Indian Head cent and it has the color of a granny smith apple, only more solid. I've also found some coins from the same time frame with no unusual coloring. The soil conditions have a lot to do with that sort of thing, I think. I imagine those coins were dug at some point, so maybe the same effect could have happened with those as with my IHC.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
