    I am surfing Ebay for walking halves and see some with very nice brilliant rainbow toning, then I see some with what is described as "Album Toning". What is album toning? Do coins really tone differently when in an album?

    Yes they do, especially, the old Wayte Rayomond albums, which contained sulphur and (after quite a few years) gave a beautiful tone to silver coins.

    I have a set of bu silver roosevelts in a library of coins album and the toning is quite nice (they appear to have been in the album since the 60's).
