cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 1:35 pm I would be pretty confident that it is a 1912, but like CoinHuntingDrew said, do an acid test if you must know! Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 1:51 pm I dont see anything wrong with calling this a 12. The top right of the loop begins to cut backto the center before it's lost to wear so a 10 is out. The last I heard there were only five 1913's known to be minted. The fifth one turned up some years back in a gentlemans estate and had been labeled as a fake by some attributer in the past. All 13's are accounted for. Report this Post to the Staff

tapapple65 Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 3:09 pm I will attempt the method CoinHuntingDrew posted and see what happens in about 5 days. I will post the results. Report this Post to the Staff
kakaratt77 Pillar of the Community United States 1414 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 3:53 pm I'll stick with Nic-A-Date, takes seconds as opposed to days. Report this Post to the Staff
ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 4:00 pm My method only takes about 2 hours. put datless buff ( V nickel in this case) in a cup facing up. Pour run of the mill viniger on the coins, about an inch deep. Then, sqiurt about 1/2 an inch of hydrogen peroxiode an wait! Works perfectly! Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 4:04 pm Yes, but Nic leaves that green blob crap in the date range. Report this Post to the Staff
kakaratt77 Pillar of the Community United States 1414 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 4:05 pm Yeah, I know, I use Nic as a last resort and only on coins I don't want, hahaha... Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 06/19/2015 4:19 pm The video looked pretty convincing and may try one day. Cause everything as we all know and see on the Internet is true. Remember every method mention actually is a process that's removing metal from the surface of the coin. Never do to a valuable coin. That said if you can't see the date in some cases, how do you know if it's valuable or not? Rookies thoughts. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
