Mine at any varied U.S. pennies a few months ago.

 

Congrats! Get this cent out before it ruins the rest!

 

O I already put it in quarantine a few weeks ago

 

And look at this

 

Sorry for the messy stove

 

So, you've shown us the edges. Now, how about showing us the obverse and reverse of each penny by date and mintmark. ~ Chris

 

Do you torture your damaged cents?

 

No I keep all different colored coins in different and separate containers depending on what type of metal corrosion

 

O it would take a few hours I’ll will do it tomorrow

 

Anyway I already sorted them from 1800-1908, 1909-1958, 1959-1982, and 1983-2020.

 

I’m very confused about this thread.....what does a fork being heating up on a stove have to do with “coin collections at it’s greatest”??

weird....

 

+ 1.....?

 

Yes, much more interested in where the fork comes into play here??

 

Hehehe it’s to alter the oxidation on coins to turn them into Cu(II)O (black) then to scrape it off with the red hot fork

 

no times 50 to the 1st quote

 

Since we've veered so off course here with the symbolic hot fork reference , I don't mind relaying the news snippet at the bottom of Fox News I'm watching........ Tom Hanks has contracted the Coronavirus.....back on topic now.

 

Well the corona virus has made it to to pine bluff here in AR that was a lot fast than the W mint Mark quarters!!! China to PB AR. Go figure!!

 

Baton down the hatches in beautiful Pine Bluff, Mike. We don't want to lose you!


P.S. Hopefully, your "W" mint quarters didn't end up veering off to China while The Corona was heading Pine Bluff's way. Keep a looking, Mike.

 

Hey in a few hours I will post the pennies front and back
