    Six found in one roll. A pity, the 1951-D looks like it might have been a decent coin.

    ...and then the bank teller handed me a roll of small discs, saying, "Here, take this."

    looks like they've been put against a wire brush/bristle.

    Fred, if I said the sky was blue, you'd set me straight: it's cyan, with white obstructions.

    I can hardly wait to see how you rip into my next coin. I suspect I won't have to wait long; I'll be posting it right after I send this one out.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the idiot tried it on one or two. I can easily see him lifting the basket out of the acid and going, "Uh-oh, didn't turn out like I expected."

    He'd need to have been several orders of magnitude more idiotic to do one with a wire brush, see the results, and then decide to keep doing the rest of them.
