This is why you don't put raw coins in a binder page meant to hold 2x2s. LED lighting washed out some of the yellowness in the pics.

Specially proof coins, binder's plastic compound has a nasty reaction with coins.

Yuck. Were you the one that put them in the plastic binder pages, or did you buy them that way?

I'd be more concerned about those black spots but them's be some ugly looking coins.

I picked these up by mistake. For some reason, I had 40% silver proof stuck in my head. How yellow they are is a dead give away that they are clad. I kind of like the yellow but yes those black spots kill any appeal.

Placticzer softening has gassed out onto the coins.

Don't use soft pliable PVC album pages.

I must admit:- I DO use old soft PVC album pages, but only for near valueless modern World coins.

Bummer.
If they had only put them in the 2x2 before putting them in the album.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
