<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 49773, member: 112&quot;]For your purposes - you&#039;ve pretty well covered it. None of the methods are perfect, but what is ? Were to choose one, it would be #3. And if you wish to see them - take the flip, holder or 2x2 out and look at the coin. As for seeing what you have and what you don&#039;t - create a paper list. It&#039;s easier than looking at all the coins anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Nope there&#039;s no way of telling what color or type of toning will develop or how soon. Toning develops according to each individual and unique set of circumstances depending on air content, humidity, temperature, light etc. Even the type of furnace &amp; colling system you have in your home plays a part.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The key is to buy the correct size for the coin. With the correct size, the coin drops right in without any downward pressure. I have used both types for many years with no ill effects.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Question 4 has already been answered IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The rechargeable silica packs are the best IMO - and yes I do believe they are necessary. I live in the 2nd dryest state in the nation and I use them.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>When someone uses the terms make or made when talking about coin grading they mean they were the original submitter of the coin. In other words they found the coin raw and submitted it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
