[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 2910922, member: 78298"]They may be cleaned, which is bad. You can put one coin at a time in the acetone (in a jar with a lid). Change the solution frequently with new coins. Pure acetone at Walmart (nail polish remover area) is like $3. The fumes are not good, do it in a ventilated area. Although a tight cap on a glass jar helps with that a little. It should dissolve the glue and not harm the surface of the coin, and then rinse with distilled water. (Although tap water prob. won't hurt these coins.) Lightly pat dry, don't rub. I don't know how long it will take to dissolve the glue. An hour or two? Overnight?[/QUOTE]
