Is this what happens if you leave your tokens in the sun too long?

Add me to the list that has lost a UR weapon (+1 Mithral Sword). I outfit a group of 10 and usually know very well all of those who use my tokens. The person who lost it felt much worse than I did, but fortunately I was able to get it replaced.

Since that unfortuante accident, I have used proxies for weapons only. Mine are full color copies but differ from the original as follows:

1) I use platinum backed tokens (since there are no real platinum backed URs)
2) The word PROXY is clearly printed on the front of the token either by hand or by paint
3) I carry the original of all proxies with me at all times, so that the DM can verify if they want
4) I use a pernament marker and put my forum name on the back of each proxy

I've had a couple of DMs inquire about their use over the years, but no problems. I have lost one proxy, but it is a LOT easier to replace than the original.

For those of us that share with friends and family, I believe something like is necessary. Heck, I use proxy weapons myself, as I am not immune to leaving a token in a slider.
