I was surprised at the number of 16's that popped up. Also a couple first issue. Let me know what you see on a couple of them. I'm wrestling back and fourth with a few. Thanks for your time hope you enjoy. More to come, some in the beginning were the same coin to try and pick up what date it was. Thanks Hope you enjoyed Report this Post to the Staff

amassey08873 Pillar of the Community United States 584 Posts	Posted 08/17/2011 03:36 am I used nic a date, it seems to be working pretty good. I just realized I have to take better pics. At least closer to the dates. How are they coming out with the pcb etchant solution. I would think that stuff works pretty good. Theirs another topic where their making a hole set from dateless, ugly's. Its very well documented. Report this Post to the Staff
RollHunter Pillar of the Community United States 687 Posts	Posted 08/18/2011 10:57 am I'd recommend you use less Nic-a-date. Even for acid restores, those coins look awful. Another thing I'd recommend is to not restore anything you can id dateless. In your group the Type 1 coins are obviously 1913s so there's no point restoring them. Same with a 16 DDO if you did happen to run into one. Report this Post to the Staff
