A conspiracy-theorist dealer at the last local show was explaining to me and my friend that all those CC-mint dollars released by the GSA in the...
Yeah, for those of us who didn't see this until the auction was pulled, what was it showing? I really don't like eBay's policy of hiding auctions...
No, I believe "impregnated" is just a euphemism for what happens to you when you need to buy a replacement.

...because you'd be spending more in electricity than you were earning in coin, never mind the cost of the equipment?
That color is incredibly unnatural-looking. I'd hope that removing the residue would change the color. Why would you think acetone would be more...
Interesting! I just expected "questionable color". Wonder what the residue is? I'd try acetone as well, or maybe xylene.
