<p>[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 1092622, member: 11521"]I have. Coins that have been artificially toned or altered may give off an odor. (Sulphur is often used to artificially tone coins. If your rainbow-toned coin has a sulphur smell you should be concerned.) The coin sniffer being implemented by PCGS will be sniffing for chemicals on the surface of coins. Cigarette smoke contains thousands of chemicals. Coins exposed to cigarette smoke will probably have some of these chemicals on their surfaces. That's bad for your coins. (And worse for your lungs.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
