What do the experts say about the Native American $1 mint paper?

This is sort of a spinoff of another thread, and I am wondering if the paper used in the 2010 Native American rolls is corrosive or bad for the coins. I was thinking about ordering a roll from each mint and keeping them in their wrappers for a long time, but a few people have mentioned the corrosive paper issue. Can anyone cite a reference to this claim or have personal experience with the mint's paper causing coin damange. The way I see it is that if the paper is truly going to damage the coins over time then what is the point of paying $35.95 + shipping for coins that you will have to take out of the wrappers. You may as well pick up the 250 by way of Direct Ship for free (although you will probably only get Philadelphia coins).

Heres a link to the rolls I am considering.

Personally, I've never heard anything derogatory regarding the paper the US Mint uses for the Golden Dollars.

I have seen seem wildly toned Sacagawea's on the ends of those yellow rolls though. Whether that was caused by the paper or the storage box and location, I do not know.

 

Try a small paper sample and use litmus paper test to see if the paper is acidic which is usually damaging to the kind of metal composition I understand the coin to be. Just an idea.
