<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 173905, member: 1242&quot;]After many years, Leather Purses and Coin Albums usually always develop a green mold in or on them! This is partially due to the material being Leather but due more to the chemicals used to tan the leather which mainly consists of salts. The salt attracts moisture to the leather and the combination of the salt, leather and many years, produces a green mold. That is why, it is never a good idea to store coins in Leather Purses or Leather Coin Albums.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes, Alcohol or Acetone will remove some or all of the green mold from the coin. However, if the coins are pitted from the salts, then too much damage has been done and the value of the coins has been seriously compromised.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Other, Other Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
