<p>[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1299959, member: 29751"]I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that it's likely more the WATER that caused the corrosion than the light. Any studies relevant to coins which are stored in a DRY, temperature controlled, non-gaseous location but with just photos bouncing off of the metal? BY THE WAY, UV rays do not penetrate ordinary window glass very well. Thus, why your photo-change "transitions" lenses do not work when you are in a car. so if it's just "ultraviolet light" that is the problem, and not just photons in general, I'm not seeing the relevance here.</p><p><br /></p><p>If nothing else, your gold is obviously fine to display. If these were "multi-thousands-of-dollars" of coins on display I would think a bit more about the question, but they seem to just be run-of-the-mill coins worth a reasonably small amount, put on display for enjoyment.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
