<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 970870, member: 15199&quot;]I vote for acid also. Acid will act approximately the same from all sides, so the obv,rev,and rim will all be affected equally. A rolled thin ( and I haven&#039;t ever seen one) would have the same diameter after striking, and this one has a reduced diameter. Many collectors think that acid would &quot;preferentially&quot; remove the devices leaving a flat surface, but since it acts on all surfaces, the devices such as the bust, date, and lettering will remain legible. Due to the problem of liquids interacting in small spaces, the letter of LIBERTY ( small loops of B and R especially) and similar letters in the motto will tend to be more blurry. Notice how the G, O, D, and U ( in TRUST) is fairly normal compared to the N,W,S,R.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
