<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1924246, member: 15199"]By what ever name you wish to use, it is copper corrosion. The coin in its lifespan of 125 years, ( during much of which coin protection of modern use was not available), met environmental conditions which were less than perfect. All of the terms we use for corrosion such as toning, verdigris, bronze disease, carbon spots, PVC damage, are results of copper metal being degraded by other chemicals over time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
