What is the green stuff on pennies?

How do you get rid of green corrosion on pennies?

Start by adding a quarter cup of white vinegar, or lemon juice, into a cup or glass. Mix a teaspoon of salt into the liquid by stirring until it is dissolved. Place your pennies at the bottom of the cup or glass so that they are not stacked on top of each other. Wait about five minutes and check your pennies.

Why do copper pennies turn green?

Why did the Unrinsed pennies turn blue-green?

Why did the unrinsed pennies turn blue-green? When the vinegar and salt dissolve the copper-oxide layer, they make it easier for the copper atoms to join oxygen from the air and chlorine from the salt to make a blue-green compound called malachite.
