Jasta2 -

Some "fire proof" safes contain contain small synthetic balls inside their walls. These small synthetic balls are designed to release moisture when the safe is exposed to a fire. Your safe might be one of these.

Suggestion: Install a "Golden Rod" in your safe. These are small aluminum tubes, closed on each end, with a low wattage heater inside. They run on ordinary house current. The "Golden Rod" goes inside the safe, and you simply plug it in to an ordinary electrical outlet. Heat from the rod drives out moisture inside the safe. It is an inexpensive fix and they do work.

Congratulations on such a nice American Eagle.
