Doesn't really appeal to me that much. Would rather have it the way it was.
<< <i>Fairly normal in PCGS plastic. I've seen this over and over with PCGS graded Modern Gold coins (particularly have seen it on commems, but have also seen it on the Spouses)... the PCGS plastic seems to make these coins susceptible to developing orange toning on the coin. I've seen some Modern commems that were completely orange. >>
All the more reason to keep the coins in the original mint plastic. I've had silver coins tone in the mint capsules, which is to be expected. Silver is a more reacitve metal that is more prone to toning. Gold, however, should be quite stable.
The only gold coins I've seen go bad in the mint holders were pieces that were stored in some stupid place, like a very hot attic or a garage.
Poor Martha, misses George I'm sure.
