Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 03/21/2021 3:43 pm to the CCF! it's normal for silver to tone like this. This is the original idea behind photographic film and paper. Light exposure changes the color of the silver used in the emulsion and creates a negative image when it's processed. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
