[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 3004691, member: 21705"]My suspicion is that whatever creates the toning/corrosion the fastest is used. But the old method of doing so was to just place it in the bottom of a potted plant for a season where it was moist and exposed to the soil. It was used to restore cleaned coins. It's certainly better than the even older method of placing them in your underwear for a month or so when you would finally decide to change them. But modern counterfeiters are sure to be a bit more sophisticated now.[/QUOTE]
