[QUOTE="differential, post: 8330830, member: 120104"]for Doug-- I've read many posts here and they haven't specifically answered some concerns I have. Maybe I'm dense. I think on one post you noted that verdigris on one coin can't cause copper corrosion on another coin. What causes corrosion is the air and water. This implies to me that it is all right to keep coins with verdigris in the same storage area as coins without verdigris, i.e. old coppers in their cotton sleeve and 2X2 envelope can be kept in the same red box (or similar) form of storage. Based on one of your posts I've transferred all my copper coins into appropriate plastic bags and then these go into a larger Rubbermaid container with desiccant and I keep the humidity below 20%. Thanks for your input on all these discussions. Sometimes everything seems to go around and around in my head.[/QUOTE]
