<p>[QUOTE="MontCollector, post: 2755718, member: 85496"]I saw your other post. No I don't think it hurt the coin. The acetone doesn't leave the spots. All the acetone does is remove any organic material from the coin. The spots that remain are non organic substances or thicker spots of organic material. The spots were always there, just the acetone dip brought them out more. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is why Ezest or MS-70 are more recommended for modern proof coins. Some people do both. Acetone 1st then one of the other 2.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
