<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CircCam, post: 2663248, member: 85675&quot;]Thanks all for the kind welcome!</p><p><br /></p><p>I doubt I have much that would be worth a membership at this point- I recently completed an Uncirculated wartime Nickel set with some PCGS and some raw and am curious if any would slab but haven&#039;t sent any in.&nbsp; Was thinking I might head to a pcgs certified dealer and get a second opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are no rare dates in these... there were a lot more of these when I was younger so I have a feeling they were cherry-picked sadly.&nbsp; The peace dollars are all 1922&#039;s, 23&#039;s, a 25 and a 26.&nbsp; There were several S&#039;s and a D but all common.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Morgan&#039;s are mostly 1883-O and 1921 P with an 1889, 1896 and 1899 but again all common when I looked.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have heard of treating with distilled water and acetone so I was thinking this might be the way to go with the Peace&#039;s since they are all common.&nbsp; The Morgan&#039;s all look good and I wouldn&#039;t alter them.</p><p><br /></p><p>My thought was that if the acetone route could be done safely, at least I would get the ugly glue spots off and it wouldn&#039;t really affect the value negatively but again I&#039;ve never cleaned a coin (I actually like crusty roached out coins, just not random and unfortunate glue!)</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks much for all the input... unless there is any real reason not to I&#039;ll probably plan to do as mentioned and test the acetone route on one of the 22&#039;s to see if it works.&nbsp; Looks like they were all stuck with the same type of gunk so that would be a good indicator if it will work across the board.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
