<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dollar1948, post: 619783, member: 17239&quot;]I&#039;ve mentioned this months back, but as part of myself living out this recession I decided to put my Canadian coin collection on hold (the remainder I needed were all key date silver examples of pre 1900 all denominations), and start collecting BU Red examples of Lincoln cents. </p><p>I am in Toronto so I bought out all those examples from the dealers in my area, I went to a wonderful coin show in Tonawanda New York a few weeks back and ebay is loaded with buy it now/make an offers.</p><p>As it sits now I have all BU Red examples from 1937 to date.. all mint marks sitting in 2 x 2&#039;s. </p><p>I&#039;ve decided to get them all in coin capsules with the hopes of stopping any toning down the road into a brown colourization. I read here that they will do that if they are exposed to the open air.Im sure 2 x 2&#039;s wont cut it either.Your American Red Book claims Red&#039;s are worth more.</p><p>To you experts, do you think this will indeed stop any toning into this brown colour (color)? Any advice how to prepare them prior to them being placed in the capsules? Im concerned about perhaps locking in humid air into the capsules.</p><p>I am going to take this one step further and showcase them in the coin boxes identified in the link below.These are then put into an aluminium locking case I have. I asked my dealer to order in all the components I need in to make this happen. They should be ready for pickup on Monday. </p><p>Thanks for the advice.</p><p><font size="4">:- )</font></p><p><a href="http://www.unitradeassoc.com/lindner2008/lindner2008-coinboxes.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.unitradeassoc.com/lindner2008/lindner2008-coinboxes.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.unitradeassoc.com/lindner2008/lindner2008-coinboxes.pdf</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
