Funny Money Valued Member United States 424 Posts	Posted 12/10/2011 9:12 pm Does the vinger make the coin look restored? I just nic-a-date them and poof, date is there in a couple minutes... Report this Post to the Staff
joshkellogg Valued Member United States 150 Posts	Posted 12/10/2011 9:34 pm You can tell- here's an example that I recently "restored." This was completely smooth, with no date, and I left it in white vinegar for like, two days. Notice how the date looks like bubble letters, even on a very worn coin, the outline of the date will be much more sharp than this. Personally, I think it's fun. Hope this helps Report this Post to the Staff
