<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2211377, member: 15199"]Zip Locks are your inexpensive friend, They come to almost body bag size. Amazon and the local 99 cent store has up to 2 gallon size which can hold albums. Put your nice coins ( whatever holders they are in ) into a ziplock bag, then put some new scuffed up lincoln clad cents ( 100% copper outer layer) into the bag and close it. . The highly reactive scratched copper will be the sentinel and when they start to get brown, replace them ( same principle as "intercept"(tm) process, and easier to tell when effectiveness is gone and replacement needed). Then put that bag into a second zip lock and close it also. If you want more safety, put some desiccant in the outer bag also. If one is really paranoid, repeat with 3 or 4 bags barriers inside the outer one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
