<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2302692, member: 19463&quot;]In my Dremel tool set I got for Christmas years ago was a tub of red polishing compound.&nbsp; It was waxy and intended for use of projects (not coins) wth their buffing wheels.&nbsp; I would suggest using a toothpick and seeing if you can remove a bit of red waxy material from someplace or wiping with a Q-tip to see if the red comes off.&nbsp; Your excellent macro photos make me think of this possibility.&nbsp; You will be surprised at what you find in the recesses of coins.&nbsp; Of course there is Renaissance Wax but there is also shoe polish and crayons if you look at enough coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>In the top loop of the left S below is a tiny speck of wax.&nbsp; That stuff is hard to get off when you go micro.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]462798[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Who here remembers when TIF shared her purchase of Alexandrian tets with make-up?&nbsp; Maybe this is lipstick???[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
