Ok perfect, I did check out that link and noted that Xylene will often take of things acetone won't but I didn't really extrapolate further from...
Thanks for the reply! Last night I did some digging around on the forum about Verdigris and did in fact come across some stuff about Verdi-care....
So while my coin soaks in his relaxing acetone bath with a glass of wine, playing barry manilow, I thought I'd explore the option of trying xylene...
Ahhh, yes that makes sense! :happy:
No worries - it was a great thought experiment. HAHA
HAHA - ya I was sitting here trying to figure out how the heck you use paper clips to store coins. :dead::woot:
While I'm not entirely in disagreement about the PVC flip - I put this worthless Thai baht coin in a 2x2. Why? because I like it and it makes it...
Very nice - I keep spreadsheets on google drive with tabs for each "type" of coin I wish to categorize. Then each of those coins gets an...

That's what I'm hoping, then I can expand out later on and try to get all denominations or something. I thought the same thing also about getting...

Hey all, So as part of my "new year's resolution"....I hate that term, but I digress....anyway I'm trying to get a better focus on what it is I...
Nope not really - I never liked the "golden dollars" from the get go. I do have a handful of the Presidential ones just by happenstance but it's...
I've seen these on flea-bay occasionally, not my cup of tea. I suppose as a charm for a necklace or something maybe it's appealing to some...
I don't know this for a fact, but I assume that NGC or PCGS, or any of those places purchase these slabs from a manufacturer. Now they may be to...
