paveltul Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 05/31/2020 12:46 am I just used nic a date to restore a date on 1920 Canadian 10 cents. I left it on there for about 30min. It did leave a nasty stain, but the date is clearly visible now. My theory is that since Canadian dimes were only 0.8 silver that year, higher copper content made restoring a date a bit easier.

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5238 Posts	Posted 05/31/2020 09:10 am I did not know that it worked on Canadian silver. I wonder if it would work on the sterling coinage. I see a lot that have the date worn off. Report this Post to the Staff

But you can see from the obverse that it is worn slick. Only the 9 was barely visible before. Report this Post to the Staff
