clarapedrero1989 Valued Member United States 173 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 5:23 pm Someone recommend to do this acetone test. I put it in for a minute and it stay the same ? Any info on that Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34409 Posts	Posted 05/12/2018 5:30 pm Ok yep try to pick it off with a toothpick, fingernail, or some other pointy device that won't scratch the coin. The acetone can soften the glue, but it may take more than a minute.
