<p>[QUOTE="joecoincollect, post: 2021769, member: 71338"]That 1903 above is a beaut. Never seen one like that. I've noticed the same thing as you. But I tend to think they are like that because no one took much of an interest in them, and they would just rot in world coin bins and get infected. I also see this with Great Britain cents and lower from the 1800s and early 1900s. These coppers tend to have bluish slime and corrosion on them and I'm wary of purchasing them raw. I wouldn't say it was so much the climate, maybe it's more the abuse[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
