Here's a guy that sells the acid nickels. It was amazing how many tough dates I brought back with date acid stuff. I got to the point that I...

Maybe at a coin shop, it would be OK.
NIC-a-date works. I used to get no date buffs for face in the 70's and use that on mintmarked coins, you'd find key dates. I could get about 10%...
