<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1153834, member: 26302"]The texture toning is an indication that is may be NT. I agree with Doug that it is reproducible. I "reproduced" it accidentally once. Had a bag of new cents in my basement at my old house and it got damp. Stupidly I just brought them upstairs but didn't open and dry off. A couple months later I did and had texture toned lincolns on the outside of the bag. I ended up spending them all, (well just deposited them into my bank).</p><p><br /></p><p>Its simply moisture, air, and clean original surfaces. That is all toning is, and I would say its harder NOT to have toned coins than to have them. Yes, to some of us its pretty, but I would never say any type of toning is not reproducible, either intentionally or unintentionally like my stupid self. Ruined a perfectly good bag of cents. Want a bag full of textured coins? Buy new cents or silver coins and put them in a bag with some air circulating and humid. Wait.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
