<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chascat, post: 2532527, member: 76792&quot;]That is a good question....I don,t know. Can you look at some and see if there is any haze around the rims?&nbsp; I don,t own any of these...but I would like to know.&nbsp; I,ve noticed the OGP silver sets have also started to haze, especially the dimes... I,ve cracked them out and carefully placed them in snap locks.&nbsp; The 92,s were the worst and fewer problems as they progress. I will assume that all will eventually develop haze.&nbsp; I live in a desert community where the air is dryer, but still keep them in air conditioned space. I,m wondering if the problem worsens if in a humid area? or if the problem is in the OGP.&nbsp; I plan on inspecting all of my OGP sets on a yearly schedule to gather more info.&nbsp; Rick Tomaska claims that sets after 1990 are safe, but I suspect that after enough time passes, problems may arise as in the silver sets.&nbsp; I suspect the newest OGP may be more inert in composition compared to older issues. On the other hand, if there is a lower frequency of problems, they might be due to improper handling or airborn contamination at the Mint, and no problem at all with packaging.&nbsp; Also, modern coining involves much less hands on if any at all, which may nearly eliminate contamination of both the coins and the holders.&nbsp; Sounds like a lot of fuss, but I,d like to learn and not guess the facts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
