<p>[QUOTE="LRC-Tom, post: 4972339, member: 25784"]The sticky green stuff dissolves easily, and is readily removed. Acetone, with a very gentle rub with a Q-tip (best to use the ones with the wooden shaft, if you can find them), followed by another acetone rinse will take care of this in just a few minutes. I wouldn't use a Q-tip on a silver coin, but copper-nickel is much harder, and you shouldn't see any hairlines as long as you are gentle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
