Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 974177, member: 112"]Yeah it's possible there could still be some coins that were original and still white after being stored in bags for decades. But you have got to understand something - there were very, very few coins ever stored in bags for decades. Now I don't mean the number so much, I mean the individual date and mint combinations. So your options are limited to those specific coins and only those specific coins. And, we know exactly what coins those were, all were dollars. Here's a list - •    1878CC - 61,000 •    1879CC - 4,100 •    1880CC - 131,500 •    1881CC - 147,500 •    1882CC - 605,000 •    1883CC - 755,500 •    1884CC - 962,600 •    1885CC - 148,300 •    1890CC - 3,950 •    1891CC - 5,700 one each of the 1889-CC, 1892-CC, and 1893-CC The remainder consisted of approximately 125,000 circulated and uncirculated Dollars from various other mints. The coins and numbers on this list are not made up, they are documented. And even David Bowers will tell you that there were no other coins of any denomination, or date/mint combination, ever found stored in any vaults. So unless you are talking about a coin from that list - they will not fit the scenario you are talking about medoraman.[/QUOTE]
