This is my favorite post of the month so far.
Oh. Canada.
I know I have dime folders with a 1965-D slot, and maybe one for cents, but I don't think I've seen a nickel folder with it. Anybody seen...
[IMG] I'm happy that I figured it out before reading onward in the thread.
Any aqueous acid solution is going to be highly conductive. I can't see how static electricity could possibly come into play.

Yep, and it still seems like a shame to me. I don't think any future system we get will be as reliable as properly-maintained Bell System copper...
Nope, not changing my opinion of reverse proofs. And with good close-up shots like this, that laser frosting reminds me even more of a 1970s...
