[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 2616315, member: 80121"]All I read, at the link you included, was back to this coin form and it had several posts that disagreed with each other on PVC and acetone treatment. Instead of putting in links, why not take the time to give your own opinion. This post started with a newbie asking about acetone, replies addressed that question, until your four word answer and a link. This is why newbies are afraid to participate in discussions or ask questions on this forum. I get PMs all the time, because they are afraid to post out in the open for fear of ridicule. I have been a collector for over fifty years, but I learn things I didn't know from this forum many times, I would like it to open up to new collectors so they can learn from the many experienced and knowledgeable posters to this forum. It is just as easy to be decent and polite as it is to be snarky and look for errors in what someone posts. Correct them, but do it in a civilized way, that's how we learn. To put it simply PVC flips(soft) bad-Mylar (hard flips) good. Capsules, and to some degree, cardboard 2x2s, better, and I know this is a topic of considerable discussion, but the best way is to send it to one of the big four TPGs for slabbing.[/QUOTE]
