<p>[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 3761751, member: 77226"]Under certain burial circumstances, silver can become brittle and crystallized. These coins can break easily. I have a drachm of Alexander and a couple denari that have chipped or broken too. It happens. A while ago someone posted a Nero denarius that broke in the same way.</p><p><br /></p><p>The drachm was broken before I bought it... which was why it only cost me $11 (Beer made me buy it).
