<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 1111478, member: 29239&quot;]I didn&#039;t know if you knew what causes the coins to tone or not so I just told everyone so the folks that didn&#039;t know could understand this. I have some of the&nbsp; 2005 westward journey nickel sets that have the regular issue nickels , the satin finish mint set nickels and the proof nickels in the same sets. these have never been removed from the mint plastic slab and you should see some of these coins. some of them are a perfect smooth deep steel blue color in the fields of them while others in the same set are starting to become the usual golden color. You are right even the sealed up mint sets can get air coming thru to the coins. Does anyone else besides me think the mint may have used something different than usual to wash the planchets in for our newer coins? I have some 2005 nickels and quarters that I removed from brand new rolls from the mint and have them sealed in coin holders , now they look exactly like pure copper on both sides. They are beautiful like this but I don&#039;t know if they are worth anything extra or not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
