<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 135373, member: 4552"]Tarnished Silver coins have nothing to do with a smaller quantity of Silver in them. The Silver is still there as it was when first made. Only now some of it has combined to form a compound made up of the Silver and other materials. As to never clean a tarnished coin because it will just tarnish again. True as to never clean any coins. However, as to tarnishing again. So what even if it dose. You bath even though you'll get dirty again. You blow your nose even though it will fill with stuff again. You cut your finger nails even though they'll just grow again. </p><p> Now if you really want to stop the toning and tarnishing, encase them in liquid plastic. I made a pen holder with liquid plastic in the late 50's with cents and dimes inside. They still look brand new just now difficult to spend.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
