The Mint set a limit based on a simple projection done by any other business. Better late than never that someone figured it out. Yet they'll put...
Acetone them soon before the crust you mentioned hardens. Slowly, and dab dry- never rub. Final rinse with water and into 2x2's or Air-tites.
Only one other person suggested the old blue folder? Good grief Charlie Brown. Only thing better would be to throw in the Red Book as already...
