<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1758737, member: 112&quot;]Toning is caused by the air and the contaminants within the air. And contrary to what many seem to think a coin being in an album, an envelope, wrapped in tissue paper, a coin roll, or whatever, has nothing to do with the coin being in direct contact with the object. It is the gasses put off by the object that causes the toning, not the direct contact with the object itself.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So if you want a coin to tone all you have to do it is expose it to the air.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And no, toning doesn&#039;t necessarily take a long time. Very noticeable toning can happen in days. In fact it begins the very instant after a coin is struck, and is a progressive process that never stops, it merely slows down or speeds up, depending on circumstances.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
