<p>[QUOTE="Jillian, post: 3571310, member: 104446"]I do live in the desert but I am not sure if this collection has always lived in the desert. Perhaps it has and that's why even the oldest coins have only minor greenish damage on them because the sheets are extremely old and brittle so I'm sure the coins have spent several decades resting in them. Thanks for the tip on latex instead of nitrile when I do the acetone dip. Do you think the nitrile gloves are Ok simply for handling the coins without acetone? The Buffalo Nickels, for example, don't seem to need any cleaning, but I need to transfer them to new flips and/or album sheets. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I think what you were trying to say is it's not just PVC that causes this issue, but palsticizers in general. If this is the case, can you make any recommendations on flips or album sheets to use or to avoid? Are there other ingredients I should try to avoid besides just PVC?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
