    Nice. Looks like your 1982-P is the "no-FG" variety (error).image

    I have had similar results on a few on my coins in my Danso albums. One of these days I will post a pic of the 1913 T1 Buffalo that has formed a very nice rainbow in under a year in my 7070. I think the right humidity and heat in a dansco will leave quite an impression on your coins. Do the anti corrosion covers do anything to slow the process?

    The complete set has been in my safe for ~1year as well. The temp is usually in the low 70's, and a humidity meter shows 35%. I have several anti-humidity devices including a silica gel canister and 2 Sporlan Catch-All Activated Cores, part # RC-4864. Cool toning I think.

    Toning is nice, but are Dansco albums designed to inhibit corrosion, or to enhance it? I mean, this generation of collectors will appreciate the effects, but the coins are not really being preserved. Wouldn't Intercept Shield be the most effective way to preserve the coins?

    By the way, nice toners!!image
