[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2224261, member: 112"]OK, but what else is it encased in ? That paper is merely the inner layer. And rather obviously you can't do that with coins. As for the oil issue itself, well somebody thought of that a long, long time ago. There are several commercial products on the market that contain oils and their purpose, their marketed purpose anyway, is to protect coins. Problem is over time they don't do that. On the contrary, they harm coins. With coins the real enemies are the air and moisture. Now you can't stop the air from getting to coins because there is no such thing as an airtight coin holder. And since the air itself contains moisture you can't stop that either. The best you can do is to reduce it as much as possible. And with proper storage you can do that, you can protect coins so that even in your lifetime you will not see any significant changes. Problem is most people either don't want to believe it, or don't want to bother with expending the effort to store coins properly.[/QUOTE]
