Sap Moderator Australia 16829 Posts	Posted 09/13/2023 7:57 pm There are several old threads where people have experimented with this. In 2007, Mila-Cent tried it on some mint-fresh coins and showed the results after a month. They didn't fare well (outgassing from the plastic). http://goccf.com/t/14446 In 2012, we had some more discussion on the topic, including one member's take on a home-made "vacuum sealer" using ziploc bags and a plastic straw: http://goccf.com/t/107143 In 2013, necro-posted into 2016, some folks talked about vacuum sealing entier albums, which seems to work better: http://goccf.com/t/154737 Some more in 2017: http://goccf.com/t/285216 There are other threads where vacuum sealing is mentioned as an option, especially for people living in humid climates. 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

Unfortunately, for more than 30 years, the plastic has shrunk and turned into chips. I'm not sure that the coin was placed in a vacuum, but the plastic made itself felt on some coins.
