[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 196467, member: 112"]I'd be careful using medicine bottles to store coins in - coins are very susceptible to being damaged by the very air we breathe let alone the various chemicals found in medicines. And there [U]will be[/U] traces of those chemicals in the bottles. As for paper wrappers, there's two ways to look at it. 1 - Coins in original mint rolls always sell for more than coins in bank wrappers. I do not believe this is justified, but it is a fact that cannot be ignored. 2 - Roll wrappers made of paper can cause coins to tone. Paper is made with sulphur and sulphur will tone coins, especially if there is any moisture, even in the air. And roll wrappers do not hold coins imobile, if the rolls are moved or handled the coins inside will rub against each other creating marks on the coins. So, there you have the information. If the coins are removed from original mint rolls, they can lose value. If the coins are left in original mint rolls, they can lose value as a result of toning and/or rubbing against each other inside the roll. You make your choice.[/QUOTE]
