Sharann

Oh please don't feel like I have done anything because you didn't tell me... Believe me I knew I shouldn't if it was anything I wanted to keep or value. I almost didn't even tell you because I didn't want y'all to be disappointed in me. But I just had to, lol. I felt like I had cheated on a test or something and it was killing me, lol. Y'all are all great and I really have already learned so much. Talking with y'all it isn't noticeable, but when my ignorant, though lovely, friends are with me they think I am a genius! Whoop, whoop!! Go, Sharann!!

If you just wanna send it off, you can send it to me. I would STUDY that thing! 🤣At least I would know that when I put it under thisicroacope I would actually find something! Lol

Well, this girl needs a maid! I do not long to clean anything, lol. I should be ashamed but I am really not. I am a little spoiled but that's okay too 😊 because I do the same to everyone around me. So, I would much rather just start this science experiment today and see how long it lasts the way it is and find some more as we go along. I do thank you for the information though. I came across a key date nickel, which turned out not to be the correct mint mark, but I couldn't see the mint mark at first to tell. So, I figured if coke would clean my battery cables then it would clean the nickel. It did help enough that I could see there was no mint mark so it was not what I was looking for (thank goodness). In cases such as that, what should I do? Message you? LOL. I just know you are always so excited to see my name😂😂

Can any of my mentors answer this? Maybe it will give additional insight.

I am still, in my childlike mind, wondering how the lines are so straight by accident. I keep thinking about cooking a hamburger on the grill and if it was the mixture of meat then it would be all over but the heat, or better yet the grill irons caused them. I really am trying to grasp what you are saying but I am having a little trouble.

Please correct me if I am wrong but isn't that rainbow toning on silver caused by oxidation? If so, then the pennies would have had to have been accidentally "oxidized" , or whatever it is called, in virtually the same pattern but different years and places and I THINK that to be less probable than it having to do with something all coins have in common. I hope I said that where you can understand what I am trying to say,

And the fact that they are from different years, I will have to check about mints makes that lesser of a possibility. To me anyway. It is strange characteristic of some, I must say.

Thanks and I'll try to find some for you too.

Although it would probably yerbits appearance, since it isn't a high dollar coin and well in years won't be a coin at all... Why not just stick it in something that will at least stunt its corrosive properties? 😱😱

As long as it's baked in we're good! Lol. Y'all have a good day now, ya hear?

Is there a way to stop the corrosion dead in its tracks?

Well it is pleasant. I wouldn't complain a bit if you let it stay with ya. Lol. Another kindred spirit 😊

Is one of your parents from the south?

Okay. My next question is why are the lines perfectly straight? I am truly asking cause I sure don't know.

I am sorry. I lost all my text and it said so much important stuff. 😭 Anyway, I think one spot is corrosion because it appears to be a hole. The other spots, though slightly different, do not appear to gouge into the coin. I had it stated so much better in the essay that I lost, but you smell what I'm cooking don't ya? My skills are on vacay as far as pics go. Idk what is going on. 😎

@Lem EI just want you to know that I did not even see those spots! Not until you mentioned them. I am so accustomed to looking at dirty coins that a coin will appear perfectly fine to me, when in fact it isn't. I appreciate your pointing that out because it helps me to learn and helps me to train my eyes to see deeper, I guess you could say. I appreciate ALL the feedback I get because that is the best way to learn. Please continue to correct me if I am wrong in any way at all. One day I may not have y'all around to ask and then there'd I'd be... Wishing someone had mentioned a black spot so I could've saved that time and money to boot. I don't take constructive criticism to heart. Promise. Thanks again! Oh, and you never told me where you are from, lol.

Hey. Are you there? @JKK

None taken, my friend. I am now trying to do my vocabulary and science homework. I will be back soon! And hopefully with an answer. 😊

Done. Ordered it from Whitman. Thanks a bunch!

Okay... You totally lost me with some of that. I am gonna have to do a little research on that, sir, and I will return to class as soon as I get it done. Thank you😊 This is great... I love it!

Thanks for looking out for me. I will do just that. I am not always nice, believe it or not. I DO have a side that will tango if they try to mess with me! Lol

I am sure all would love to hear your theory if you'd like to share. You don't necessarily have to prove one wrong to have another.

Well, I sure am glad cause I didn't think it was that bad myself. Maybe it was the pictures or something, but I found two more after that last night. They weren't as pronounced on one side as the other but still woodies. I wasn't gonna disagree with anyone though... Not until I get my degree😂😂 At least he was nice about it... Unlike some other people. I appreciated that. @JKK

Are you talking about my little ole penny? @JKK

You know, I just might. Where do I order one?
