<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1835063, member: 112&quot;]No the book is not right, toning and tarnish are exactly the same thing. Toning is merely what tarnish is called when talking about coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>And toning begins at the very instant that a coin leaves the dies, and it will continue as long as the coin is exposed to the air. Under certain conditions toning accelerates very quickly, I&#039;m talking just a few days. Under other conditions it goes more slowly. But it never completely stops.</p><p><br /></p><p>And no the TPG slabs will not stop toning, but when proper storage is used they do help to slow it down. If stored properly any good quality hard plastic holder will slow down toning to the point that you will notice little change in your lifetime. But proper storage is the key.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
