Becky Pillar of the Community United States 954 Posts	Posted 06/27/2008 8:42 pm Yes, some of the older albums such as the Wayte Raymond albums are prised for their toning abilities. Some of the newer ones don't, you just have to make sure which ones are which. I much prefer the ones that tone the coins. They can turn a common coin into a WOW coin. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 187671 Posts	Posted 06/27/2008 11:13 pm My Jefferson Dansco album is just over twenty years old now and the only toning I have seen is with the proofs. The tone is an even bronze tint and I like it very much. None of the business strikes have toned. None of my other albums have done this, not even to the proofs.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/31/2008 09:43 am Basically don't worry about coins in Dansco or Whitman Albums. I've been using both for as long as they have existed and no problems at all. Of course I do have a litle trick to prevent any problems with coins. I put each album in a zip lock bag, push out as much air as possible, then close. I presently have over 100 such albums and no problems with toning, corroding, tarnishing, etc. Report this Post to the Staff
1954siel Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 07/31/2008 5:03 pm Ive had it on one SBA. I took it out of the mint wrap and when I went to go add in another one 2 weeks later I noticed it had turned. So I'm not sure if it had something to do with the air from coming out of its wrapper, or the book. But I'm pretty sure it was from the wrapper Report this Post to the Staff
