<p>[QUOTE=&quot;New Windsor Bill, post: 2448554, member: 78123&quot;]I have tried soaking in distilled water and then acetone. After this I tried picking at it with sharpened oak dowels (nothing came off). I have it now in a mix of a solution I read about on a metal detector forum. A lot of green has come out in the solution already. When this coin is wet you can see the detail. This is truly the worst coin I have (its a challenge!!). And its a shame because of what the coin is but I am going to try everything I can before I nuke this . I actually made an electrolysis rig yesterday and tried it on a clad quarter I found while metal detecting. I could not believe all the junk that came out in the solution of this pre-rinsed quarter. And when I stopped the quarter was copper in color. Maybe I used the wrong solution. Thanks for your imput.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
