[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1357256, member: 2972"]I would NOT have conserved them. There is nothing wrong with edge toning, and some collectors even prefer it. Yes, the toning should stabilize to a certain extent from being in a slab. However, slabs are not airtight and if stored in a "bad" place will only slow down the toning and not stop it. So don't think because it's in a slab that it is safe -- that is not entirely true. To stop a coin from toning you need to (a) limit the humidity, (b) limit the airflow, and (c) limit the temperature fluctuations.[/QUOTE]
