In June 2008, rhodium hit $10050 per ounce. (No, I did not type an extra digit by mistake.) In November 2008, rhodium hit $1000 per ounce. (No, I...
Huh. I didn't know acetone required that. Makes sense, I suppose. Fortunately it doesn't look like something that would affect metal or toning,...
I haven't looked closely, but I didn't think you could get 100% pure acetone there, only "nail polish remover" with scents and whatnot added...
I'd have to say Shield Cent, but only because they're saddled with the zinc reverse-galvanic-protection composition. I actually like the shield...
OMG -- The Sticker King!!! (29957blue, aka "Zack's", used to post photos of coins in 2x2s covered with stickers. The one I remember is "Less than...
I wonder how much of this is actually driven by large-scale coin-roll hunting (or, as some banks apparently call it, "mining"). If a bank has...

Closer, but "contamination" is overly specific, I think. I still don't think "original state" belongs. The carrot was covered with dirt from the...
As for my own definition, I can't do any better than "removing foreign or undesired material from an item."
I'd argue that that's not a good definition of "cleaning", but it is an excellent example of "begging the question". What does "original state"...
Y'know, it's funny -- Abe's face gets smoother with age, but not mine...
Never mind that. Think how many rolls of Wheats you could get with the money you spend on cigs!
So, if that's the case, I think the solution's perfectly clear: ask them to send you their card reader! You run the transaction, send it back to...
Used in a context of invective, I think even "lackadaisical" is a lot less powerful and dangerous than, oh, say, "you". I wonder if members can...
