Depending on how effective the acetone is, consider following that with xylene. That's a nice coin, but has some gunk that really needs to be...
Very nice set. Be sure to share the grading results with us.
On the main page of each sub-forum ("Coin Chat", "Error Coins", "World Coins", etc.) look to the right of the forum title. There's a blue...
She's riding the earth in the more lady-like side saddle fashion. I'm guessing the thing behind her head is either the large island of Hawaii, or...
Didn't even think to look for that!
The obverse of that Smithsonian commem is quite lovely. The reverse, unfortunately, is a bit of a mish-mash. Looks like they were designed by two...
I thought that was a joke until I looked it up. Funny stuff.

Coin folders can lead people -- especially kids -- to believe filling holes is what coin collecting is all about. It can be, but it doesn't have...
Pretty much the same here. When I came back to my coins in my mid-20s, I realized I no longer had any interest in date & mint mark sets, so I got...
That's a nice one. There was a time when I had a lot of woodies, but now I don't have as many as I used to.
James Naismith invented basketball in 1891. Why is basketball being commemorated in 2020? Maybe I don't understand the thinking behind...
Really nice. I'd love to have one of those.
