<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Randy Abercrombie, post: 24868214, member: 92655&quot;]Not really. There are chemicals that outgas from the cardboard that causes coins to tone in very unappealing ways. Like [USER=74863]@Collecting Nut[/USER] says, if the coins are average grade coins... No harm, no foul really. But if you have any heirloom coins, I sure wouldn&#039;t store them in a Whitman folder long term. If I were home I would show you a photo of my Mercury dime book that I began assembling in the 1970&#039;s. I was a kid and the dimes are quite humble but they were clean dimes when they went in that book. Now 70% of those dimes have a hideous black toning creeping in from all around. But we are talking about dimes that have been in that cardboard book since the 1970&#039;s. You can clearly tell the few higher value dimes that I was only able to afford this last ten years or so. They are the only silver coins in the book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
