<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TomCorona, post: 539677, member: 17621&quot;]Thanks for your thoughts Boss!. Yeah, I know the coin is basically ruined. I will save it as a reminder of what NOT to do. I will experiment with xylene and acetone as well, and maybe the Verdigone as well as I have a few large cents that would look really nice it it weren&#039;t for the green puke all over them.&nbsp; Strangely, it wasn&#039;t looking bad until E-Z-Est got hold of it. I know most frown on cleaning and I now better understand why. I know I&#039;ll never try anything with any coins that I am not willing to potentially sacrifice. I do have the goal of getting good enough to eventually be able to get as good at this as my buddy claims to be, hopefully though, not at the expense of many good coins. I started collecting and decided that I want a variety of coins, and more versus less in quantity. I&#039;ve spent nearly a thousand dollars on EBAY over the past three weeks or so I have a pretty good amount of varied coins, most of which folks here would consider below their acceptance level I suppose. I do have a few more higher dollar ones, but I generally have a hard time spending large amounts on one or two or five or six coins. That said, I don&#039;t want all junk either.I figure a few decades from now, when I hand them over to my 8 year old son, I&#039;ll have acquired enough of a variety and value for him to enjoy. I just hope I don&#039;t destroy most of them along the way. Peace, and thanks again for your time.:smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
