Wow that is some fantastic information, thanks! I'd give you some reddit tokens, but you answer is worth more than that. ๐
No worries! I'm just glad to share a neat thing :)
Oh one more thing I just remembered -- ancient bronze coins were made with a fair amount of lead. If you go to a dealer, sometimes it's a huge pile of dusty coins... that dust is like 10% lead. So resist the urge to lick your fingers, and instead go wash your hands :P
