[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 4016683, member: 77814"]I think this was already stated. See post #4. When a coin is dropped in the dirt, it could, for instance incur physical damage too by being pounded into the dirt. Or if the dirt was in motion it could cause scraping against it, etc. A coin, or anything for that matter, does [U]not limit itself to only one occurrence of any type of damage over it's lifetime[/U]. Many things can happen over many years. A coin, which gets scratches on it from probably each and every occurrence of use going back to when it gets dumped into the main bag right after being minted and subsequent coins dropping on top of it becomes a device to buy things and the most people that use it do not care about it's "well being". The question people cannot answer is *exactly* what type of environmental damage. what was in it, for how long, who put it there and why? was it only once ... maybe it went from a beach environment into someone pocket and fell into a more acidic dirt environment ... 1 month .. 6 months, 5 years later ?? who knows right ? It seems as though you want to argue specifics, when you yourself do not provide the specifics of the lifecycle of the coin from it's minting to *every* person who has touched it, to *every* instance of any form of damage to *every* instance or where it's been, etc. After all, you have the coin, not us. We are being totally *generic* as we are missing those *exact* details that you are not providing us and wouldn't being able to provide. But truthfully, who cares? Learn to identify environmental damage and physical damage and move on. But, if you want to learn more then you yourself will have to start experimenting on how to perform replicative physical damage both with chemicals and physical things. Then you'll be more informed of how, possibly, the damage occurred in certain scenarios.[/QUOTE]
