<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2115172, member: 26302"]1. Of course there are toned ASE's. Unfortunately I didn't store some of my 1986's I bought in 1986 properly, and they are now toned. (Natural) toning will happen quite rapidly on 99% silver.</p><p> </p><p>2. There are coins I personally feel are naturally toned, (ie unintentionally), that get body bagged, and others personally I feel are AT in slabs. There is no great dividing line between the two in my view.</p><p> </p><p>3. What should a collector collect? Collect what he likes. If you wish to avoid problem coins though, learn how toning occurs and about coin surfaces. Once you learn that, most of this stuff becomes very clear and you know why many coins with toning are in demand, (pristine surfaces), and why coins like the ASE's shown physically cannot be natural toning.
