coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/04/2018 5:07 pm On BU coins the finger prints etch the color off the coin. So unless they are fresh, they might not come off. Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7523 Posts	Posted 02/04/2018 5:45 pm Thanks CF. moxking, like Coop said it is hopeless on older marks I have tried other ones and didn't budge,I'll give it a shot since I've got nothing to loose but I doubt it'll be effective.
