<p>[QUOTE="calcol, post: 2988206, member: 77639"]I wouldn't put any coins in a Whitman blue album, especially not copper coins. Even if they are low grade to start with, some may be thoroughly corroded in a few years. I've experienced it. No one wants their coins, even if low grade, to have chunks of green copper salts falling off.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just finished going through some blue coin eaters that belonged to my wife's late uncle.

I don't understand why an otherwise responsible publishing company still produces these things. Perhaps those currently produced are more inert, but I wouldn't trust them based on past history.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
