I am thinking mainly for rolling up common things like 1 and 5 cent coins. Report this Post to the Staff

And remember all manufacturers may well have different processes so even if you find some are safe, other similar products may not be. Report this Post to the Staff

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5238 Posts	Posted 02/14/2018 06:19 am Thanks. I seem to recall that this famous collector Brand stored all his coins in paper envelopes. Do you know if those coins toned over time? Of course the envelopes were from the 1920s, so who knows what the manufacturing process was compared to now. Report this Post to the Staff
