[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 7607774, member: 80952"]Happened to me yesterday. Was checking my albums and noticed this coin [ATTACH=full]1309809[/ATTACH] that wasn't even touched since I added it in the album had a mighty crack and it was in 2 pieces, like this [ATTACH=full]1309810[/ATTACH] I was trying to remove it but right after I touched the foil, not the coin, it decided to go like this [ATTACH=full]1309811[/ATTACH] The inside was plain white, so heavy crystallization i think. I bought the coin thinking the flan was oddly shaped from minting phase, but it's clear that it suffered similar issues in the past. Managed to glue the pieces back together. I knew ancient silver can create situations like this, but I wasn't expecting it to be THAT fragile.[/QUOTE]
