<p>[QUOTE="iameatingjam, post: 8520074, member: 118287"]Yeah thats what I thought too but I found a thread on here that said silver can get it too...? The denarius is Caracalla by the way, so there's definitely some copper in there. Enough ? Don't know.</p><p><br /></p><p>To your second point... yes thanks for reminding me, I was going to bring that up. It didn't seem like whatever it was, was eating away at the metal in the same way bronze disease does. The coins looked pretty much the same after I cleaned them as before this happened... but thought maybe thats because I caught it early?</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you know what else it could be? I did have the stater in a pvc slip for a while ( 2 months maybe) when I first started collecting and didn't know any better. But that was a long time before this happened. I don't think the denarius ever was while in my possession.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
