Thought I'd share a couple of photos - these are fresh from NGC with nice STAR designations. The reverses were blast white. These were stored in rolls tightly wrapped in newsprint for decades.

Do they stay that way?
I had a spectacular silver Japanese coin with frosty pinkish blueish toning, but over time it changed to not as nice as it was.

Depends how you store them. There are coins like that that have lasted for decades while others change over time

NGC took some liberty deciding which side to place in the front of the slab. There were a couple more MS 65* coins in the batch. I'll try to add some more pics.

If you specify how to slab them they will all generally honor that, if not they will make some decisions on their own when things are toned like that
