<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 181839, member: 112&quot;]Any coin that has had acid used on it to reveal the date, mint mark or variety diagnostic is considered to be damaged. Now, that being said, if you were to find a particularly valuable coin by this method, yes it would be worth more to some people. But a dateless Buff is worth about 7 or 8 cents, and by revealing the date with acid you might get 10 cents so that a collector could use the coin as a filler, but I wouldn&#039;t expect any more than that. </p><p><br /></p><p>For key dates like the &#039;14-D, if the date is barely readable it will grade AG-3. If the date is not readable it will grade F1 or PO1 with value of 7 or 8 cents. To make the date readable with acid, you might get a few dollars for it, again from a collector wanting to use it for a filler. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is why I say it is not worth the effort.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
