<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 520392, member: 4552"]All Silver coins require special types of materials to tone and I'm the only person that has those. So my suggestion is to just send all your Silve Coins to me for toning. And don't worry. If I can't tone them, I'll just keep them anyway. :smile<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Some people have done a large variety of methods to tone coins. I really suggest you just experiment yourself on numerous methods to see what happens. Although here are some that many have attempted:</p><p>1. Place the coins in an oven and heat for a few hours. Turning if possible. Temperatues and moistures vary so results many or may not be desirable. </p><p>2. Place the coins in the ground, about 2 to 4 inches below the top. The problem is dirt is different everywhere. Might and might not work. If a plant starts there, allow to grow fully. May have coins instead of leaves.</p><p>3. Spit on the coins and leave on an outdoor window sill. Nothing will happen if kids, birds, bums, homeless people see them.</p><p>4. Place under your arm pits and tape in place.
