LOLOLOL As you can see, I collect multiples of every year and mint. A simple PDS collection is not enough where there's so many different looks...
Bah, if you could go through my collection you wouldn't say acetone rinsed coins don't look "normal". I have yet to see any adverse effects caused...
Nice pickup for 15 bills!!!
Of course, no date set is complete without some wood!
Another tinges of red example...love these.
DOH! I missed 1917.
Some mild wood....
One of my favorite coins! In an NGC AU-58 holder.
