<p>[QUOTE="Aaron Apfel, post: 4494290, member: 67415"]The condition of that coin looks absolutely fine, why would anyone coat it in any kind of wax? I have only ever applied very thin layers of wax to some of my bad coins that needed sealing to prevent inevitable corrosion. I guess some people just wax coins out of habit or something? I have seen similar practice in museums with metal artefacts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
