<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 4038967, member: 73995&quot;]I was looking thru some of my coins today, and had forgotten about this experiment.</p><p>I had to put it on hold due to remodeling my basement. I added two bedrooms and a bathroom. Due to construction debri I put all my coins and camera away, anyways...</p><p><br /></p><p>The new coin that was partly out of the flip had to be put away. It fully altered the experiment as the toning went wacky. For the short time it was out of the flip it was on the same path of toning as seen by the line in the same area as the first.[ATTACH=full]1060383[/ATTACH] As you can see there is much more toning around the perimeter. This is because the coin was fully in the flip, and folded.</p><p>I am fully convinced that [USER=15309]@Lehigh96[/USER] is right. This is from the paper insert, and or possibly the ink that is causing the toning.</p><p>Here is the obverse. It went wild with some splotchy toning.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1060384[/ATTACH]</p><p>For anyone that is new to this thread, or doesn&#039;t want to search through, this is the final progression of the coin that started the experiment. (new photos)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1060386[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1060385[/ATTACH]It no doubt has furthered even though it was in a completely different drawer than the inert paper that caused the extreme toning in the first place.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have decided to further the experiment with the second coin. I slid it further into the flip and will update the thread as it tones. Might even try a different .9999 silver coin to the same environment.</p><p><br /></p><p>For any newbies this is intentionally toning a coin and is considered AT.&nbsp; Knowing that the coin was susceptible to toning all measures on my part should have been taken to stop it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also wanted to say that I have no qualms with [USER=15309]@Lehigh96[/USER] or [USER=76863]@baseball21[/USER] </p><p>At this time we were all in some very heated conversations. No doubt things got personal. I have buried the hatchet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
