[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3237147, member: 112"]And for every person like you whose coins did not continue toning in a significant manner, there are 10 others whose coins did change. Ya see Paul, one individual's experience, even the experiences of a hundred or a thousand individuals, does not establish the rule. Bottom line, your posts don't prove anything beyond the fact that your coins didn't change much. But that by no means proves that others do not. I've probably written more about proper coin storage on this forum than anybody. And I've stated countless times that if one follows proper storage methods that your coins will not change a whole lot in your lifetime. So why do I say there are ten times as many whose coins did change ? Because very, very few collectors store their coins properly like you do. Coins toning is inevitable. It can never be stopped and it can never be prevented. The very best that anyone can hope for is to slow it down. And with proper storage methods it can be slowed down a great deal. And by the same token, it can also be accelerated up a great deal. And it will be exactly the same, caused by exactly the same chemical processes as those that cause it to happen slowly. Now just about everybody already knows this. The only difference between you and them is - you refuse to believe it. Or at least you purport to not believe it. Personally, I think you do believe it because you're too intelligent not to believe it. But on that count I could be wrong.[/QUOTE]
