I have seen a few people mention "gassing". And i read earlier guys saying people "gas" coins after they are slabbed. So my 1st ? is what is gassing? And 2nd how could you possibly gas a coin in a slab? thanks guys.

 

Slabs aren’t air tight. So place them in an environment where there is substances in the air that can cause toning and they will.

 

ok thanks. i thought they were airtight.

I also was of the opinion that slabs are relatively air tight. However, plastic is porous, so even if they are acoustically sealed 100%, I could see how some gasses would be able to pass through.

Has anyone ever measured just how porous they are? Is there a filtration level where certain compounds are unable to pass, but others are?

It would certainly be interesting if someone did measure it.

 

Floor is open....

 

I have an interesting slabbed toned foreign coin...can I post that or are we only allowed to do US coins?

 

It's mainly focused on US for this thread, but you can post it as it will make for an interesting discussion.
