jbuck Moderator United States 188770 Posts	Posted 04/06/2015 5:22 pm Quote: Yes it's more costly in the short term, but how many ruined coins does it take to pay for the practice? Good advice. As I said above, I use cardboard 2x2s, even if just for temporary use. If I get a coin from a coin show in a flip, I usually move it to a 2x2 before I leave.

Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 04/06/2015 6:17 pm Is that what happened to this 100 yen? IIRC, I bought it in a junk box -- probably no one thought that silver could look like this. I keep it in a 2x2 so it doesn't contaminate nearby coins. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/06/2015 6:26 pm That's pretty bad but not lost. I'd treat it right away! swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 04/06/2015 6:40 pm Not meaning to sound callous, but IMHO this coin has only melt value, and I'm not sure PVC affects melt value. Why would you treat it? Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/06/2015 6:44 pm Oh, OK. I don't know a whole lot about Asian coinage. If it's just melt..your call. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188770 Posts	Posted 04/07/2015 11:08 am Just melt? It is still a coin and deserves some respect! Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff
