<p>[QUOTE="Steve Shupe, post: 8270248, member: 114551"]More than likely, the paper from the rolls will already have slightly toned the coins at the edge. I would put them in plastic tubes, then store in some ziplocks with a desiccant packet. Since these are already 50-70 years old, it wouldn't surprise me if you see some small toning spots on some of them. If any are pristine, then it may be worth it to take those and put them in their own individual holder. Those I would not touch with bare fingers but with cotton gloves. Open the rolls very carefully! You just might have some beautiful gems. The coins from this era have a much stronger strike and deeper relief than what we currently get. Enjoy the process and maybe share a picture or two with us of what you find![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
