koinpro Pillar of the Community United States 1781 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 8:04 pm I pick nickels, dimes and quarters like this off the ground every year after the snow thaws. I have a small bag full of them that I started collecting about two years ago. Since most are found next to drive ways, etc. I think that not only the ground contributes to the discoloration but salt laced with chemicals. Ken Report this Post to the Staff
