I've seen thousands of slabbed coins turn, it's no guarantee, plus it's EXPENSIVE. An airtite for <$1 works just as well. If not better.  (Still not air tight, but more so than a slab.) Quote:
Badthad, what are your thoughts on the new PCGS watertight slab for color preservation? Interesting, never heard of these. I await commentary.  |

What will they be sealing into the slab with the coin? Oxygen maybe? |

Paste the text you want to quote Thanks Jbuck! I needed to know how to do that as well. Is it possible to create a button called "reply with quote" under every post where you click on that and it instantly quotes the text that the person wrote? IMO it would be much easier to quote. Edited by Ploopy

Beautiful toning.
Hoping for the best it doesn't turn in the future.

I"m not a fan of toning on coins. And if those were to be put in an Album, would get darker and darker.

I have ordered the lens solely because they were toned. It seems to be fairly common with that particular lens. Something in the cardboard I guess.

I like the toned look of the proof Lincoln.
I have been starting a album for just toned coins.
Coins like that would fit right in.

IMO it would be much easier to quote. Quoting is purposely difficult for a reason. Quote:
Doing it the way we do it forces one to only quote what is necessary. |
