<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mycohopper, post: 984700, member: 21377&quot;]Found this interesting post on another forum regarding polished coins&nbsp; and how to &quot;dull them up&quot;. Involves a tin box, rocks, acetone, and some&nbsp; odd coins:</p><p><br /></p><p>Quote:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;I have this&nbsp; tin that has been my &quot;coup &#039;d gras&quot; for years. It takes a bit to get it&nbsp; conditioned right but once done...magic. Take an English peppermint tin&nbsp; and remove any interior clear coating by a rinse with acetone or lacquer&nbsp; thinner soak. Use gravel to shake and &quot;open up&quot; the interior surfaces.&nbsp; Remove gravel. Add a variety of coins composed of dis-similar metals.&nbsp; (Foreign,silver,brass, aluminum,copper etc...) Shake well and&nbsp; frequently. Place coin in tin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Making up this tin creates a place where a&nbsp; natural electrolysis takes place and develops a white powder. This&nbsp; &quot;powder&quot; is from all the dis-similar metals actually transferring&nbsp; surface molecules from coin to coin, tin to coin etc..&nbsp; This &quot;Magic&nbsp; Powder&quot; is very aggressive to minutely resurface any &quot;polish&quot; away.&nbsp; Making up this tin takes a while to get it active but once done, you&#039;ll&nbsp; have it forever. &quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>What are your thoughts?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
