[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3174321, member: 27832"]I just came across a beer bottle of cents that I filled and taped off in 1982. It's a brown bottle, so it's hard to get a true reading on the color of the coins, but it looks like the ones that were lustrous when I put them in still are. I used packing tape, which probably ruined any coins it actually touches, but seems to have kept oxygen out pretty well. Don't know how they would fare over centuries, but after 35 years, so far, so good.[/QUOTE]
