It can contribute negatively or positively. A negative example would be corrosion on a penny like yours when the copper reacts with water and soil and corrodes. That forms a crusty green layer that is not attractive and not good at all. Positive environmental contribution would be like toning. Toning, with Morgan dollars for example, happens when the silver reacts with water, air, and sulfur to create a layer of silver sulfide which bends the light and reflects it with all these beautiful colors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
