[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2547056, member: 1892"]Snerk. :) I'm really kind of surprised that this one hasn't answered your efforts in this long; even in the worst areas it should be seen to have at least diminished the periphery of the larger spots. Are you keeping the coin tilted so the acetone can reach every square millimeter? Shouldn't matter if - for instance - you only need to worry about the obverse and lay it flat with the obverse pointing up, but it can't hurt to maximize the accuracy of the procedure. It's why I use round-bottomed shot glasses which don't allow the coin to lay flat, for my soaks. And, oh, I read your initial post as 8 [B]days[/B], not 8 [B]hours[/B]. My first soak for a coin like this is [B]24 uninterrupted hours[/B] without touching it....[/QUOTE]
