[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1448295, member: 26302"]Fair enough, snob away. :) Btw Doug you could be right about the blue folders. I just remember this toning in old collections and groups fairly often. That could be the cause. I have a bag of nickels a dealer put away for me at face, (I may have given him a few bucks), in the 80's as a courtesy, (just non-silver Jeffs without 38ds, 39ds, and 50d, from groups and folders that walked through the door), that were only ever worth face back then. I will be a man and admit I practiced dipping on these very coins like this. They were only worth face value, so I thought no harm done. Btw this toning is very light, it comes off much easier than the toning Gbroke posted. I know, heresy dipping away toned Jeff's. Sorry Paul, but if it helps it was OP's kind of toning mainly, not like yours, (though there could have been a couple unfortunately). In my defense toning was not really valued then, and I was trying to learn how and when to dip in order to save more valuable coins.[/QUOTE]
