Kulman47 Valued Member United States 176 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 12:46 am Freed these from their tombs to send off. #1 what do you think they'll get (PCGS) and #2 should I try and get the dust off them and if so how? I rinsed the Q in distilled water, worked out ok but it was my least favorite one. Report this Post to the Staff

hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7276 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 11:22 am Considering you can buy one already slabbed for $89 on ebay. Why would you grade these? I agree with the PF68 (maybe 67 for the quarter) and PF 69 for 50 cent and dollar.

hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7276 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 10:27 pm Doesn't mean you need to get them graded. Keep them as is. I don't think they are worth to grade just my 2 cents.

PNWType Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 04:23 am I love the idea of slabbing coins that mean something to you. Then nothing can happen to them. Grade-wise I think That Coin Dude has got it Report this Post to the Staff
Lancek Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 11:53 am A quick soak in acetone might help. Acetone evaporates quickly so it won't leave spots. Distilled water is better than tap, but it can still spot up. Pure acetone, not the stuff they use in nail polish remover. Also have you considered ANACS. They are cheaper. Resale is less, but if you plan to keep these, no big deal. They will also conserve an entire batch of coins for one flat fee. $39. PCGS and NGC charge per coin. I have sent proof sets from the 60's to them. Had them conserved and it took off all that residue, cloudiness and spotting. Looked as shiny as the day they came from the mint. They have a special going on right now if you have more to submit. Minimum of 12 coins for the special. If you have them conserved, don't bother with the acetone. Report this Post to the Staff
