Kaklik New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 02/15/2019 05:49 am Just was checking the bay for the price range of "Strange but true" coin set similar to mine. I have found identical one, even the rainbow toning on the Kennedy half is the same. How is it possible? The item number is 292953409226 And here is the Kennedy half from my set Report this Post to the Staff

I think that if you look closely enough, you will see that there are some differences between the two coins, including the toning. Assuming both coins started life untoned, there may be something in the paper holder "Strange but true" that is causing this toning and it has progressed at roughly the same rate for both coins.

I use only acid free, where as that used in coin folders is probably not unless stated on the packaging/folder. Very typical for coins to tone in similar fashion, almost as identical as you describe.
