All My 2009 Proof Cents Have Toned, Have Yours !

I ordered a set, should be here tomorrow. I'll let you know if they're toned too. I plan on breaking them out.

I just looked at my 2009 Uncirculated Mint Set. (not Proof) and found this slip in the packaging. All Coins are OK.

Since the Cents in the Mint Set did not tone at all, with extreme care, I transferred the complete proof set in the Mint Set package and need to seal the blister pack. I placed the coins from the Mint Set into the Proof holders...
Will post photos when completed, and I also like that all the proof coins are on one card instead of four seperate holders.

Good to know!

I plan to take a look at both of my 2009 proof set and the 2009 Lincoln Coin and Chronicles set when I get a chance.

I've seen quite a few sets toned to various degree, including some of mine.
I agree with BadThad's and DNA's comments.

Last year, I bought a year-2000 Silver Proof Quarter lens specifically for the coins' subtle gold hues (almost a "white gold" look, and way too subtle to be A.T.). It did take 11 years for them to reach that subtle coloration, far longer than Broken-Coin's Cents. The ebay seller was in upstate New York.


Those should look great in the Proof lens! Question is, will they tone in that OGP as well? There's a chance they may not, if the toning was due to the bronze's/anti-tarnish rinse's interaction with gases given off by the OGP insert because it was new (ie: the gases in new cars that give the trademark "new car smell"). If those "new packaging" gases are now gone, your Mint Set Cents may not tone.

PS: I checked my pair of 2009 Silver Proof Sets, one 2009 Clad Proof Set, one Lincoln Coin & Chronicles Set, and three 2009 Mint Sets.
No toning on any of the coins.

I've just checked:
Clad Proof Set: 5 out of 8 sets toned in various degree
Silver Proof Set: 0 out of 1 toned.
Mint Set: 0 out of 8 sets toned.

May be jbuck can set up a little poll/survey for this topic. It would be interested to know.
