<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 694040, member: 15110"]Where have you been eddiespin?? Good to hear from you. I always cut the oil with acetone or xylene. Using warm water (which I have tried) will cause the oil to trap some of the water and make a weird film. I wonder if you soaked any of those old coins in acetone, maybe 10-20 min, two more dips, distilled water and canned air what would they look like? Like I said, I can't remember for the life of me if I oiled this coin or not (I am assuming I did). Mind you I have graded coins, full RD, I submitted with light coats of mineral oil that graded with PCGS and NGC that look the same now. I will only do that for RB coins now, and mostly don't do it much these days. I would be estatic if this were to grade but don't want to sink any more money I don't have anyway, into Genuine or Details grading fees.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
