@ BadThad, you're correct. I just checked and my last cost me a total of $74 /w shipping.
I have no idea where I pulled $200/liter from.

Thats a big improvement. I have used acetone for a while now and have never had a problem.

Would all of the avid collectors here look at that 1919 Mercury and be able to tell it has been cleaned?

Point taken BadThad. :)
I guess I was trying to see if people can tell if something has been cleaned using that method. My untrained eyes can't discern cleaned coins unless they have taken an obvious harsh cleaning

It depends on the coin. Generally, a 10 minute soak is plenty.

what about if the coin has some really really nasty stuff on it? Have you ever soaked an indian and then have gotten that green caked on looking funk... what exactly is that and would leaving it in the acetone longer get it off? I have a Nice 1864 I think L, but the back is covered in that green stuff and no idea how to get it off
