Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 02/28/2018 10:02 pm Good idea - I just always wonder why the Government has test results that overexposure of Zinc can be cancerous to us humans but then they go make coins out of it? Yes copper plated but that plating doesn't last too long with circulation! Report this Post to the Staff
