[QUOTE="TomCorona, post: 835878, member: 17621"]Warning! Warning! Danger Will Robinson!! Humans can pass coins for decades, centuries amongst them, transferring them hand to contaminated hand, enduring who knows what along the way. But try and preserve them with some dangerous chemical, and boom! Nearly worthless now and forever more. You know the Mayan civilization, as advanced as they thought they were, thought the world was flat, and they thought they were right at the time. Then somebody discovered it was round. Blew their theory all to hell, and now we see how silly that concept was. Can't wait for that day in numismatics. Can't wait to tell my grandchildren..."When I was younger, they thought coins were ruined forever and thought they knew it all". Course by that time 98.5% of the coins will all be destroyed or damaged beyond all imagination, because they weren't preserved properly. The other 1.5% will be in Thurston's safe. You folks are a pip. Please pass the grey poupon. :odd:[/QUOTE]
