[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 5398015, member: 4373"]There is always a possibility and has been shown in history. Here's one example - [img]https://www.omnicoin.com/coins/994973.jpg[/img] In 1931 in Kweichow (Guizhou) Province, China - because of an acute shortage of copper as well as the poor finance of the economy, coins were struck in antimony as it had plenty of such metal. Production was delayed by a couple of years and it came as no surprise that the public did not respond very well to such coins. It didn't look pretty, wore quickly and was not even worth face value when it was issued! It's in the last couple of decades that such coin has appreciated drastically. What might have been worth less than 1 cent back in the day is today worth more than thousands.[/QUOTE]
