[QUOTE="Good Cents, post: 3355435, member: 100720"]So, I'm coming around to the idea of using Ball and Mason jars. The only problem is, I've never used them before and wouldn't know if one is a better quality over another. Also, is there any special technique to using them for coins? My understanding is that heat is somehow involved in the process when it involves food. But coins aren't food. Also, the lids seem to be metal, not glass. Are certain lids and metals better to use than others for the coins? Are there certain sizes or types of Ball and Mason Jars that are better suited for this purpose than others? Again, I want to be able to seal these things up and let them sit for as long as possible without attending to them while they prevent the silver coins from tarnishing - for either months or years. I want to do this the best way possible. If you have any advice on using these Ball & Mason jars for preventing silver tarnish to coins I would very much appreciate if you could share it. Thank you.[/QUOTE]
