<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 1491770, member: 5233"]Guys, I would strongly suggest that we keep this thread on topic. I don't want to see it get hijacked with pictures of non-related things or see a repeat of the rock tumbler thread. Stay on topic and behave...consider yourself warned.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the coin...those sticker coins were sold as novelty items. If you want to remove the sticker and soak the coin in acetone go right ahead. I doubt it will fully solve the problem as over time the glue from those stickers can (and will) permanently damage the coin. Odds are, the coin will only ever be worth melt...but since it is a silver half it does have some value there. I wouldn't put the coin in the rock tumbler as that will make it only worth melt for sure. Once the acetone has done it's job...that is as good as the coin will ever be. Nothing else can be done to improve. I would leave it at that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
