Can a coin which has been made into a paperweight be removed from the acrylic without completely destroying it? I don't know if the acrylic actually "sticks" to the coin or not - if not, mechanical means could be employed.
Its a good question, but if it is not too old, I think you can. first you need to carve it close the coin to deal with the minimal amount of acrylic. Ruben
In response to Randy Nessler's query on solvents for acrylic-type resins, methylene chloride works very well. This solvent can be used to completely solubilize Plexiglas and other acrylic polymers. It is a principal ingredient in commercial paint strippers. -=W.L. Steffens=- STEFFENS.B@calc.vet.uga.edu
