<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 197349, member: 112&quot;]If you don&#039;t want them to tone, get some silica gel packs and keep them with the coins. The holders the mint sent the coins in are just fine - they are just like Air-Tites but made by a different company. So they don&#039;t need to be put in anything else. </p><p><br /></p><p>The problem is what you are using to store them in - the plastic organizing boxes. It&#039;s not the boxes that are harmful, it&#039;s that they allow too much free circulation of the air. Coins should always be stored in some sort of larger container that basically shuts ofg the circulation of the air. It&#039;s not that the container is airtight or needs to be, but it does need to restrict air flow to some degree. Containers with snap on lids are best. And inside that container you need to have silica gel packs to absorb any excess mositure ( humidity ) in the air.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for paltinum and gold - yes gold will tone slightly over time - although 99 out of 100 people will tell you it won&#039;t. Dunno about platinum.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
