<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 497782, member: 15110"]Thanks Jim. That is a nice reply from an experienced person. I am glad to here someone say it's not worthless (look at all the crummy stuff being sold on eBay now). I originally paid around $600ish. I would not sell as is. I will get it toned successfully one way or another. Even if I have to wait a decade!! I do have the "Coin Chemistry" book by Mr White and have read and re-read several times. He measures toning in nanometers and by weight. That's where I got the idea for raw/ new pennies in my ziplocks in which reside my IS box's (in which reside my coins in airtights or 2x2 IS flips). I know Doug thinks that's crazy but as I understand that's what IS product. It is impregnated copper which binds with sulfur and contaminants so it effectively removes them from the air.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
