<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 447623, member: 15309"]A fantastic question. I have to admit that I don't really know the science behind the toning rate for dipped coins. I will say that the oxide layer that forms on metals can form a protective barrier against corrosion. If the oxide layer is completely removed as it is with a dip, it would only make sense that the dipped coin would tone at a quicker rate initially than the undipped coin that already has an oxide layer on the surface. At what point this would even out would be a great topic to research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
