Australian coin Pillar of the Community Australia 1244 Posts	Posted 12/08/2011 12:02 am Fingerprints can be easily fixed by soaking in water for a day or two, if they seem raised or something it could be a glue like substance, what I am interested in is it really a 2003 coin, that is like a coin that never existed!

Have fun :) Report this Post to the Staff
