Don't swim with coins

[Rollem]

Hi Everyone, was looking for my recently posted 2011p ddr 002 found it in my swim suit pocket after a short evening swim.

First pic are the ones i previously posted, http://www.lincolncentresource.net/f...ad.php?t=22237




next are the ones after swim. I think I am going to bottle the pool water.

You may have found the secret to cleaning. I may have to try that for grins and giggles on a cull coin. Get that bottle plant running! lol

Way to go James! Now you are going to have all of us unfortunate pool-less collectors sneaking into the neighbors yards in the dead of night and stealing pool water... gee whiz, and I thought this was a crime free zone!

James, do you have to have them in your pocket? Or can you just dip the coins in the water?
Also, how long were you in the water? And, one final, what was the temp of the water?
Thanks.

James - bottle the water and use it a's a coin cleaner!

We *do* all know that Chlorine is a corrosive agent, right?

Well here is a fast answer:

Pool uses salt type filtration system, but you can't taste the salt type and does not effect eyes.

Temp was probably 85 f

In water maybe 45 minutes.

The reason it ended up in pocket was the wife saying I am waiting on you and (you know no gentleman in the south keeps a lady waiting)

Wife said it's a fountain of youth.

Are you sure that isn't a different coin and you just found a second one

Pool uses salt type filtration system,

James

So the filtration system breaks down the salt into sodium and... can anyone guess?

Furthermore, swimming pool water is very prone to low PH levels. I would check that if I were you. Not only will it clean your coins, but it will turn your hair green too!

[Rollem]

Ha Ha, no green hair here! Just grey now.

Wendell it is the same coin, which I will have in the mail tomorrow going to another LCR member.

But I do hope to find another.

This doesn't apply to me....I have 'clear' hair.

lolol..But seriously , salt filtration is the cleanest and least expensive way of keeping a pool clear. No harsh chemicals at all. The filter is expensive but it pays itself off quickly
