Sap Moderator Australia 16804 Posts	Posted 03/08/2020 6:26 pm I think it would take more than a bit of sunlight to melt the plastic like that. What happens if you put a slab in a microwave? Maybe something like this? (Science Note: don't try this at home. Don't put metal things in a microwave unless you can afford to buy a new microwave). Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

jonnin Valued Member United States 128 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 10:58 am Yea that isn't just sunlight. That is out in the sun on a hot day for hours, or in a hot car for hours, or something like that where the thing got to 120+ degrees for an extended period. I cannot see that this would damage the coin; its a low temp for a coin but a high temp for the plastic. A microwave could scar a coin. Silver or gold may be damaged; not sure how hot it actually gets on high, but metal gets rather hot fast in there, and those arcs & sparks cut the metal layer out of a cd in a hurry.
