New one dollar coin - it will rust!

[Sion]

This type of money doesn't rust only turns to ashes:

Hi diver-hloc,
I must say that using liquid laundry detergent is a rather novel way of laundering your money.

Members here worry it will stain their cloths meh... giving them 'peace of mind'... :bsmilie:

Don't confuse rust coloured algae called daitoms with iron oxide rust.

It should rust, it's only a dollar worth of metal on the surface.
What? you expect it to behave like a dollar gold coin?
Think again.

the TS has not violated any of this. The coin is still intact albeit the colouring, it is still valued at 1 dollar [still can buy things with it], he did not disfigured it with any writings, impressions etc, did not deface too.

so he is safe. LOL

 

[d2xpeter]

as with bro diver-hloc, he is merely washing the coin with detergent to make it cleaner. LOL

Since TS didn't 'test' the coin till destruction... I have to agree that no law is violated. But if an item is tested in ways it isn't supposed to, and then "IF" TS come here to 'stir' about the quality of coin.... well, that is another issue all together :think:

But since TS is mainly pointing out that metal underwater for a month, will most likely show signs of rust and oxygenating/corrosion... then just for the fun of it... let us all do some scientific experiments :bsmilie:

You should read it first, compare and then post if you still find it applies here.
Or do I need to report myself for washing coins in pockets of my pants?
