Apparently it forms peracetic acid, a corrosive acid.
I've heard of some guy who used 2 parts vinegar 1 part peroxide to acid date US junk silver. He did it on a Barber Quarter and it turned out to be...
Nice! Looks like a type B to me. Did you get it out of a junk bin for melt value? Bin trolling pays off so much. Once I got a 1966 Australia 10...
Where did you get it? :eek:

Very nice coin. Similar to a 1902 Indian I picked out of the LCS junk tray for 50 cents. It is AU details with some verdigris I can probably get...

Sorry to burst your bubble, but none of them are rare. (Well, technically speaking, there are no rare wheat pennies in the series, but thanks to...
