A rinse in acetone will simply remove extraneous oils and other crud from the surface of the coin, it will not (at least it should not) affect the...
I saw that coin when it was first listed. Thankfully, the seller did not attempt to state that it was an 1838-O since it is simply an 1838 with...
I understand your frustration, but I also understand the dealer, too. It appears he was attempting to be honest with you about the potential to...
