<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 516967, member: 15110"]I wonder about this a lot as some of you remeber my screwed up S VBD and 14 D (post NCS debacle). Took my coins to LB coin show today and several felt the S VDB would holder (some of the more respected dealers that PCGS directed me to), but he 1914 D was toast. I have both in an album in about 35-40% humidity. I think toning without humidity might be a 10-20 year process. It does seem however, after about a month, the VDB is toning slightly. My fear is putting these key dates in a humid environment and verdigris or some other nasty stuff grows. AJ in Arizona you might have to put in the bathroom near a cup of distilled water. Great info on the NGC boards about this with awesome photos of the Taco Bell affect, perhaps you all have read these, but they were very helpful to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
