<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1173244, member: 24633&quot;]In the late 50&#039;s and early 60&#039;s, we would sometimes go to our summer home in Ocean City, MD during the winter months. Since all of the arcades along the boardwalk were closed in the off-season, we would hunt for coins along the beach. We didn&#039;t have metal detectors, but you could still find coins on the surface because the winds would cause the sand to shift. The weight of the coin would hold the sand in place beneath it. We&#039;d find many nickels that had discolored to a reddish brown like the one posted, and I can only assume that the salty air and water had something to do with it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
