<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coin Armour, post: 1762852, member: 43971&quot;]You could use pennies however, pennies don&#039;t act like magnets for harmful gases.&nbsp;&nbsp; If the pennies are in the bottom of the bag, they will only trap the gases that come in contact with the pennies...and you cannot get enough pennies in close proximity to the coins to do any good...in other words there is not enough surface area to properly protect the coins. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also, the bags will turn from a copper color to black when they are no longer useful (i.e., they have absorbed gases).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I store all my slabbed coins in intercept bags and store them front to back in a box.&nbsp; I never had one coin ever exhibit toning or spots for several years. IMHO, I believe all my coins are brighter than others not stored in intercept.&nbsp; I am a collector first and foremost and started this business out of necessity to protect my own coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
