Bought one few months ago, and when checking it with the magnifying glass, it had a SMALL spot. I wasn&#039;t happy as I know it can spread. It was very superficial, and knowing that BD doesn&#039;t like heat, I grabbed the coin with some wooden tongs and lit a few matches on the BD spot. Checked it months later (and just checked it now), it did not reappear. But I think this was a non standard solution since the problem was very small.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
