    I agree with Michigan on this one. If you look, portions of the zinc core are beginning to show in a couple of spots on the coin. The more moisture these see, the faster the cent will corrode.
    We all know there's no such thing as a "hunted out" location.  Let's stop using that phrase to describe a park out of which you just dug a pile of coins!  Obviously that particular place wasn't "hunted out", right?
