There have been many, many threads on the subject. But if you wish to discuss it again then please start a new thread.
Maybe, but maybe not. You don't ever know for sure and there is no way to tell for sure. Not unless you can physically see something (a substance)...
If I were you Siggi I'd just be satisfied with knowing that is a very, very, very large number - to 1.
No, that is not what the machine does. What it does it to detect foreign substances on the surface of the coin. It does not detect if the surfaces...
At first you can't see it at all,but it is there. Then it appears as a clear, cloudy film on the coin. Then as more and more gets deposited on the...
How could it NOT be worth the trouble ? The genuine coin was made of silver, this one was made of copper. The purpose of counterfeiting the coin...
Why ? The acetone removed the PVC contamination. There is little point in placing the coin in another acid after just removing one acid. Dipping...
Why do you think they need to be cleaned ? And I pass on the acetone idea if I were you.
Yeah, life would be nice if somebody else would always do all your work for you. It'd make things a lot easier - for you. A lot tougher for them...

It's not as hard as you think, you're just not completing the last step. Say you want to search upcoming auctions for a 1942 Walker. You're on...
I never claimed they were counterfeits, and I have absolutely no objection to any of Daniel's work. I was merely pointing out that by definition...
Well when all we have is a picture to look at, then that's all we can discuss. Yes, I'll readily agree that I have been misled by pictures more...
LOL !! Geez Paul, I didn't know you had a sense of humor :D
Sorry Fatima, but your additional definitions only prove exactly what I said. Every one you provided described a coin as money. Are any of Daniel...
You talkin to me ? :D
That's my point Rick, it's all a matter of perspective. I used to build entire subdivisions of houses that cost over $5 million each, one guy...
Restored ? No. But you can certainly get what looks to be PVC contamination off the coin by soaking it in acetone. Follow the steps listed here -...
Sure it's possible. But I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on one turning up.
