<p>[QUOTE="illini420, post: 727205, member: 19423"]I wouldn't use acetone. But if you want to get that gunk out of the lettering on the one coin, soak it in mineral oil for a few months, then see if that helps loosen it up, if not, leave it in for a year. then you can very very very carefully get the gunk out something like the tip of a toothpick or something perhaps. i'd just leave them alone though, most coins aren't worth messing up any further by playing doctor <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
