  The John Adams looks like it was in the ground for a decade or two. Sheesh, it looks like people are even figuring out how to accelerate corrosion these days.

  That manganese alloy will go south fast. I left a dollar on a windowsill for an year and it is darker than that John Adams one. The reverse still looks good with some luster.
