<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2564349, member: 112&quot;]Well that&#039;s kinda the thing, you <u>don&#039;t know</u> that the coin made it 150 years in the same state. You only <u>know</u> the state it is in now.</p><p><br /></p><p>The point I am making is that the coin very easily could have turned black a couple of times and been dipped, also a couple of times, over that 150 years. And now, today, you&#039;d never know the difference. In other words, it&#039;s quite probable that the coin&#039;s condition has changed, drastically, over the course of its life. And probably more than once.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why do I say this ? For the same reason you mentioned - because over that 150 years there were no preventative measures.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
