Seeing damage on reverse looks like it was caught in conveyor belt... Edited by Crazyb0 04/16/2017 3:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Smurfy New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 04/16/2017 3:50 pm Thank you for the welcoming and responses! I am new at this, but I enjoy trying to find good pieces, I wish I had more time to study it. I heard not to clean them so I don't plan on soaking it. If it were stuck in a conveyor, wouldn't the letters be affected where the lines are? Thank You Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/16/2017 3:53 pm Don't think it is a true woody. It looks like roller lines. Never heard of removing them with acetone. Here is a link with a bunch of info,I still don't fully understand it though. http://goccf.com/t/239497&whichpage=1 John1 Edited by John1 04/16/2017 4:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Smurfy New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 04/16/2017 5:17 pm I've tried to read/research a bit about this, but it seems to me that everyone is a little confused as to exactly what this is. In light of this, does anyone think I should have this appraised/graded? Thnx Report this Post to the Staff
