<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 110421, member: 4552&quot;]Could be someone is just having fun dipping in something. I noticed that putting pennies in certain dish soaps made them blueish. So just to have fun I put a big pile of pennies in this soap, turned them blue and put them back into cerculation. Possibly someone is smugling gold by making pure gold pennies. </p><p>In reality it is just possibly some contamination that occurs frequently and was never noticed until lately due to the much more popular coin collecting boom. Don&#039;t forget that the gold color of gold is not really as gold as people think. Usually true gold is very pale and brass, bronze, copper, is added to make it look gold. Just as silver or nickel is added to gold to make it white gold. I never could understand that one. Why get something made in gold and add something to it to make it not look like gold?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
