<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 56447, member: 112&quot;]Sure looks like it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Understand - it&#039;s not really the PVC that is the problem. It&#039;s the softeners they put into the PVC plastic holders to keep them soft. Over time these softeners cause the PVC to break down and it is deposited on the coins in the form of a slimy, green colored film. This film will actually eat into the metal of the coins sometimes causing severe corrosion.</p><p><br /></p><p>If any of your coins are stored in soft plastic flips or pages like in your picture - odds are they are PVC flips and pages. When new - these flips and pages smell like new shower curtains. If yours are like this - the coins should be removed and re-holdered immediately.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
