[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1011462, member: 26030"](I know my thread title sounds funny!) If I put some nice (prevously dipped) Unc. Morgans in a old coin folder and left them for 10 years ... would they tone nicely ... (would it take longer) ... (is toning coins this way more of a gamble) And if they did tone, would that be considered natural toning? Is the real difference between NT and AT the time involved ... NT coins take decades, while AT coins take a few hours/days Or the vehicle used for toning ... AT coins use sulphur drops or a spray NT coins react to sulphur in folders, envelopes, or bags Or is it more the intention ... NT coins were not stored with intention to tone while AT coins were purposely stored or manipulated so they would tone Does anyone sell high sulfer folders where you could experiment with "naturally toning" a coin over many years ... or would that be frowned upon i am guessing most folder sellers today take pains to remove the sulphur from their folders ... right? thanks in advance for any input![/QUOTE]
