<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheFinn, post: 2999934, member: 90102&quot;]You are correct.&nbsp; Any time there are large hoards or storages of coins, the pieces on the outside &quot;take the hit&quot; and absorb the sulfides and oxides that can react with the metal of the coins on the inside.&nbsp; Same as lots of Spanish 8 reales found on the ocean floor - the coins on the outside of the clump are always corroded, but those inside of the grouping have been minimally affected.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
