<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 3237346, member: 15309&quot;]Do you guys understand that your fringe positions and definitions are not what are accepted by the numismatic community?&nbsp; Toning is not considered environmental damage until it reaches end stage.&nbsp; Dipping is not considered harsh cleaning as long as the dipping doesn&#039;t impair the luster.&nbsp; Nobody cares about your technicalities.&nbsp; And plenty of coins have been dipped with no discernible impact to the coins luster.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nobody is trying to dictate storage requirements, <span style="color: #0000ff">other than you need to keep your coins in a cool dry place</span>.&nbsp; All I am saying is that if you store you collectible coins in an harsh hot/humid environment, you run the risk of your coins developing toning patterns that are not NT/MA and that will devalue your coins, and rightly so.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, all my raw coins are kept in Intercept Shield Albums.&nbsp; That&#039;s right, the toning enthusiast uses the albums that are most effective at preventing toning.&nbsp; Think about that for a while.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
