Looks like just another method of separating you from your REAL cash.
No fear, it's fairly volatile and it will certainly be completely vaporized when the grill is heated. What you don't want is to get in on your...
It's good you came here to defend yourself. As an ebay seller myself, I understand your frustration. Did she leave negative feedback before...
You can see the label: "Contains 2-butoxyethanol and sodium hydroxide". It is NOT an acid, it is a strong base probably with a pH greater than...
The coin actually looks a LOT better in your pictures. I'd call it AU50, it still has some nice red. Does it cartwheel? Personally, assuming is...
The damage is done, the coin will never be the same.
You're lucky you got the coins. About 3-4 years ago I mailed a very well-packaged group of Lincolns. After a few days the buyer said they never...

Nice cracked skull!
I've had this happen a couple times, both times acetone kind of hazed the surface. I ran the coins though water and xylene after the acetone, then...

63/64 details
63/64 RB, the pictures make the any luster look flat. $25-30 coin
