<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 1563476, member: 29239&quot;]For some odd reason all of our newer coins not counting the cents will tone to a brillant deep copper color . now all of my graded and authenticated ultra detached leg 2005 nickels are a beautiful golden color. at first this bothered me but now I&#039;m enjoying the way they look. brand new dimes and quarters will also do this if they have not been in circulation. I have found out by doing some experiments that when I gently wash the coins in warm water and soap then rinse them off then dry them with a super soft cloth they will not tone back to the brown or gold color.</p><p><br /></p><p>This pretty much proves that whatever the mint is washing the coins with is the cause of this brown and gold color toning. </p><p><br /></p><p>if you don&#039;t believe me get some coins directly from the mint in the collector rolls then open the rolls and leave the coins in a open box then look at them after about a month. if you don&#039;t want to open the rolls just take a look at the exposed coins at the end of the rolls.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have plenty of naturaly toned golden brown nickels and quarters already in coin holders here somewhere. I can probably find them if anyone is interested in seeing them. PM me if you want to talk , I&#039;m disabled and enjoy emails.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
