<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 8198960, member: 100459&quot;]First, my coins are stored in a cardboard box in our &quot;little house&quot; in the room that has our water pump in it.&nbsp; The water pump is sealed to avoid an condensation in that room that is also used for my wife&#039;s sewing room.&nbsp; The mean temperature in the room is 70 degrees.&nbsp; Can the cardboard box have any effect on the coins?&nbsp; If so, I will need to find another means of storing them.&nbsp; What would be the best storage container?&nbsp; I use the same box to store my magazines and have had no problems with mildew.&nbsp; But, back to my original question... Are there any sources that can tell us what causes the toning?&nbsp; And, is there any source that tells how we need to store my coins?&nbsp; I have seen on this website coins that have toning and are highly in demand.&nbsp; Does toning add to the value of a coin, especially the ASE which has a cellophane sheet over the 2013 Limited Edition Silver Coin Set.&nbsp; Should I remove the cellophane sheet covering the coins?</p><p>Boy.... I am asking a lot of questions, but if there is a source, I would like to find it so I can learn more about toning.&nbsp; BTW, I have several Morgans that have never seen the light of day that also have toning, albeit just a little.&nbsp; WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?</p><p>Again, thanks to all you coin collection giants that teach us and listen to our squealing, from a novice that is 74 and trying to catch up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
