<p>[QUOTE=&quot;memphis mike, post: 3602, member: 616&quot;]Hi, my name is Mike and I&#039;ve just got back into coin collecting...I try and collect as much pcgs and ngc high grade coins as i can afford, but i also would like to fill my Morgan Dollar books up with &quot;raw&quot; coins...Everything has been going along smoothly and i feel i have been getting some decent deals on yahoo and ebay...Today I received a AU 1886-S which i have attached the link to.&nbsp; For some reason, the s mint mark to me doesn&#039;t appear to match the rest of the coin...I have looked at it close and there are no marks around it and no halo effect except on the left side.&nbsp; The mark seems &quot;dirtier&quot; than the rest of the coin.&nbsp; Anyway, what is the best way to determine if it is authentic....will acetone cause it to drop off if it has been added?&nbsp; also what role does acetone play in collecting and where can i buy it...i know it probably comes in fingernail polish remover...can that be used?</p><p><br /></p><p>Coin in question:</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;<a href="http://page.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/auction/83881527?aucview=0x70" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://page.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/auction/83881527?aucview=0x70" rel="nofollow">http://page.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/auction/83881527?aucview=0x70</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
