[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 6541674, member: 80952"]Thank you. I will buy some pure acetone as I know it doesn't affect coins. I am not sure if it's oxide - I soaked the previous coin, not this one (currently waiting for the coin in the thread to arrive) [ATTACH=full]1262099[/ATTACH] They are very similar in condition (minimal circulation wear, but...) - I am 100% sure they belonged to the same person and I saw at lest 30 similarly damaged coins in 2 auctions. As you can see, in both examples, the damage affected the surface. Coin 1 obverse legend IVLIA MAESA A[vg] - VG gone. Coin 2 legend IVLIA MAES[A A]VG - AA gone. I checked the coin from this message, the letters are simplu "polished" I am not bothered too much - the problems reflected in the price, my only problem is making sure the damage doesn't evolve.[/QUOTE]
