I've found coins that just rot just the same there'll  be nothing to find in 50 years time coz they all rot away to nothing,
British coins are that low grade that discriminating iron disc's out these coins,
And as they are surposed to be of value and represent the value in gold but they are fraudulent they are not worth the
gold value so the rest of the world is getting ripped off by this currency.

Cool Ea?    You can pull a Silver 1954 quarter out of the ground that looks like it was dropped yesterday.

You can pull a Zinclan out of the ground dated 2001 and just make out the date if there is enough of it left!  LOL!

The bit i don't understand is they devalue them and we are surposed to except it, and that brings us back to gold
Gold is the only real value you can almost depend on

Our Grandfathers left us the good stuff  "SILVER and GOLD"
What are we going to leave our grandchildren? I guess it will have to be pulltabs for they are made
of higher quality than our current coins . After the coin has rotted away I am sure the pulltab will still be
there just waiting for some lucky MD to find it.
Maybe we should make coins out of aluminum at  least there would be something of value for our future generation
to find beside that wonderfull pulltab,we all know that pulltabs are not going away anytime soon.
I coins were made of aluminum I bet pulltabs would become much harder to find.That would not be anygood because
we all love finding those tabs and without tabs we would all get bored and probably give up on MD altogether,right!!! LOL
