<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1120266, member: 29239"]Folks why pay extra for a coin that is toned ? If you like toned coins all you have to do is to break them out of their protective mint or proof packs and lay them down in a clean paper box and turn them over once a month , when the air get's to them you will have deep smooth multi color evenly toned coins before long. The reason coins tone more around the edges is because this is where folks handles them by the edges. I hate the looks of toned coins expessialy thru a loupe and try to keep mine protected and nice and bright. The toning will sometimes destroy the mint finish when it get's too severe with age.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
