<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Owle, post: 934092, member: 22004&quot;]I have looked for W-R holders at coin shows without any luck. I guess they will help silver coins under the right circumstances.&nbsp; Gold, however, is an entirely different matter. I have had low end mint state gold coins that have had hairlines fade out over time, on a sunny window sill, and that&nbsp; later earned a M61 or MS62 grade.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The coin doctors apparently have all fast methods.&nbsp; I remember having an AU58 better date $20 that I spoke with a coin dealer about that he had someone work on.&nbsp; It came back in a MS61 holder. It had a dark blotch on the obverse as a result of the work the doctor did.&nbsp; Why it was certified by the tpgs, I have no idea.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I recently picked up some gold coins in old PCGS holders.&nbsp; One was a type II $20 AU58, very high end, and with attractive orange blush toning. I don&#039;t know whether it is natural or not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
