[QUOTE="Info Sponge, post: 701845, member: 20538"]I don't know whether things tarnish faster in safe deposit boxes, but it's at least plausible. The neighboring safe deposit boxes probably have papers in them, so it would be like locking your coins up with non-archival paper. Desiccant is better than nothing, but a more direct approach to preventing tarnishing would be something like Intercept Shield's product, or a cheaper alternative meant for storing sliver tableware. As far as risk analysis goes, don't jump to conclusions based on who tried to scare you last, but try to weigh the relative chances in your country of bank closures, home burglaries, police raids on safe deposit boxes, house fires, and armed robbers forcing you to open your home safe. Every single one of those has happened, but the relative risks depend on where you live.[/QUOTE]
