<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 975250, member: 15199&quot;]That is hard to do , as I have always agreed with you that toning starts to some extent , the hours +/- after striking, although the progress varies due to variations in the environment. Here is an example of one of the &quot;lightest toned&quot; compared to a recent minted cent. I will check the bank later to see if any 2010 rolls have made it yet. Here is a (CW) 1968-S, 2003, 2009, 2010. I think the gold vs. pink coloration should be obvious. I realize the 68S is 95% copper surface, and the others are 100% copper surface, but that is more reactive and should show faster toning.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/lincolncolor.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
