<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 4022555, member: 17665"]It's good to keep them in your safe but again, the environment inside the safe is important. Best to use some type of silica, packets or cannisters are good for this to keep the moisture in a safe zone. Think about what happens each time you open your freezer or fridge, you let outside air inside. The same happens with your safe. I had accumulated many rolls of cents since 1982 when zinc was introduced. I kept them all in a warm room but forgot about the possible moisture they would come into contact with and when I finally got to them to search many years later, many were ruined. This did not happen with my rolls of pre-82 cents. Copper plated zinc cents will always be a problem coin to be reckoned with for ages to come.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
