<p>[QUOTE="cwart, post: 578919, member: 18487"]I'm not sure what causes the exact colors to appear, but I do know that they come from chemicals and gases in the environments around the coins. Coins kept in the cardboard holder books will tone from the acids in the cardboard holding them... Hopefully thats a starting point for what you are looking for. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>And for the more experienced among feel free to fix what I didn't quite get right.... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
