    If you over dip you're SOL! It doesn't take that long to dip too much either. I tried it once with a Mercury dime, I tried TarnX as that's all I had. I dropped the dime in there and it started to sizzle, no **** it really did! Anyways, I thought that looks good but I bet I can make it look better. Well I ended up with this gray sick looking dime that I couldn't use for anything! That's right, I ruined a $2 dime but I learned a big lesson! I learned that I didn;t like being a dip!! :D Take it from a former dip, don't try it!! ;)

    haha thanks for the story, guess what I was told about "if your going to try anything risky, try it on an inexpensive coin" thanks for the heads-up...("sizzle" hahah)

    Why would you want to do something like this to a coin?
