<p>[QUOTE=&quot;frech001, post: 2250571, member: 20616&quot;]Coins can undergo a lot of interesting challenges in the hands of collectors who wish to &quot;improve&quot; them.&nbsp; How about a coin that had glue or some form of varnish on it that had cracked and was then subjected to an acid in an attempt to remove it.&nbsp; The acid may not have attacked the organic coating but did etch the metal exposed by the cracks.&nbsp; Eventually a solvent may have been used to remove the glue or varnish and exposed the etched design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
