<p>[QUOTE="CircCam, post: 2812362, member: 85675"]Are there any companies besides NGC out there who do "conservation <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />" for raw coins at a reasonable price anyone could recommend? After trying acetone baths on some of the Peace dollars I feel these need something a little more heavy handed than acetone baths to remove the gunk but I don't want to ruin them. Can always leave them be but would love to see what a couple would look like beneath whatever the years in the flips/tin can has left on them if it could be done without ruining the luster. May be wishful thinking but I figured it doesn't hurt to ask. </p><p><br /></p><p>I suppose I could just pick one or two and send them to NGC for the full treatment and slabbing to keep as mementos of my G-grandfather despite the fact that I'd be taking a hit value wise to do it. Any suggestions for the best candidate(s) from those pics for that would be much appreciated as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
