I have a bunch of states quarters rolls (almost 20) and one Sacagawea roll from 2000 but I noticed that they are changing color and I purchased some of those quarters tubes but now I am torn between leaving them and allowing them to take on some color and protecting them for the long term  . Thank you all for your thoughts  |

I guess it depends on what you really like. If your in to the toning I say leave em.. I would probably leave them unless I was searching for something in the rolls

I keep mine in their original rolls if I can. It shows they haven't been searched which is better I think when it's time to sell or trade. If I did decide to search or open the roll, the tubes would be an excellent choice. That's my 2 cents  |

I think they will always have more value in their original rolls, so I would vote to leave them in there.

With the rest of the collecting world, I'm going out on a limb to say that even in the Coin World, packaging is everything. If you have original packaging, there is a certain amount of added premium |

The plastic rolls (PVC Free) will still not stop the toning. Contact with the paper roll will hurry the toning process. Original packaging is usually the better call.

I've had possibly hundreds of rolls of coins in those plastic rolls for as long as they have been in existance. I periodically open one or two just to see how the coins appear and so far they all look like the day I put them in there. So when does that so called toning in plastic tubes start. If in a few hundred years, I should do something before that. Not sure how long but I've got some 43 Lincoln Cents in those plastic rolls from when the coins were new. Not sure how long they've been in those tubes but still look the same to me. |

A little bit off topic but....I had a half tube of cherry picked 2009 Lincolns and wondered what would be a safe filler to keep the tube packed tight to prevent rattle..For now I rolled up some bank roll coin paper until I could think of something better.

I say pull them out and put them in the tubes. You get to display the coins and keep them from toning.
