<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1000579, member: 112&quot;]Yes, it can happen. But it is no where near as common as you make it sound. One reason I know that is because collectors struggled for years trying to find a way to keep their coins from toning in paper rolls. They even used to wrap them in tin foil first and then slip it back inside the paper roll.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other problem of course is just how many of those old paper rolls do you really think were really original ? Or do you believe that there are unsearched rolls on ebay too ? </p><p><br /></p><p>That is not something new ya know. The unsearched roll scam has been going on longer than I have been alive. It was commonplace to remove the coins from the roll, dip some, and then replace them leaving the toned coins on the outer ends of the roll. </p><p><br /></p><p>A great many of those dealers you speak of were fooled back then just like the newbies on ebay are now.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coins tone - period. And to find untoned coins of more than say 30 years old is one of two things - very rare, or dipped. And you know what I think of the word rare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
