<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 2563615, member: 13307"]Is there a liquor bottle with an opening large enough for a silver dollar? I say drink that tonight and chuck them in there (as a better, more relaxing solution.)</p><p><br /></p><p>The OP asked if acetone would remove the toning (it won't) or if it would improve the appearance (probably, but not enough to markedly improve their appearance, especially given that the coins look pretty rough in the second set of images), and then what would we do. Yes, acetone will arrest the PVC process, but IMO, no, it won't "fix" the way those coins look. So, to me, a waste of good acetone. I would personally auction those coins off and use the money to buy something else. But I still wouldn't put them back into PVC flips again (because I don't own any - when I buy coins that were in them, they go where they belong...in the trash can.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
