<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 511125, member: 112&quot;]Just for something to remember regarding the mention of using aluminum foil. The idea of using aluminum foil is probably older than most here. Many old timers, in an effort to prevent their rolls of cents toning would first wrap the roll of coins in aluminum foil and then insert that into the paper roll.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now this would do an excellent job. However, there is always an however, if by chance any moisture, even from excessive humidity, got to the paper roll - it would create a chemical reaction between the copper cents and the aluminum foil causing the cents to corrode. So it was no tuncommon for these old timers to open the rolls, often years later, and to find they had a mess on their hands.</p><p><br /></p><p>So - if you try using aluminum foil for coin storage - extreme care must be taken. Or you&#039;ll end up with that same mess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
