<p>[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 2617023, member: 80121"]Of course chemistry effects coins, I just felt that the discussion had strayed to far from the original post asking about using acetone on coins. The only chemical I ever use on coins is acetone if I detect a film of PVC, normally from an old flip, on a coin. Acetone doesn't effect the metal of a coin (I was told it does effect copper) and TPGs don't body bag a coin treated with acetone. I'm speaking from experience, I've treated coins with acetone, sent them to a TPG and not had a problem. If a coin has a film of PVC on it is probably worthless, so I feel there is nothing to lose trying a bath or two of acetone. If it works- winner, if it doesn't nothing lost.</p><p><br /></p><p>Enough said on thee topic, this will be my last post on it, I hope the newbie who asked the original question about uing acetone was able to weed out an answer from this tread.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
