You think I will need to practice on another scrap coin or will it not damage the coin in question to bad if I mess up?
I would most definitely practice first. While it may not ruin the coin, you might decide you do not like the appearance. Better to have that disappointment happen on a throw-away coin than the one you really want to reveal.

I'll post it later once I mess with a device that can take pics. Should take me a 1-2 hours.

Excellent! And I thought it couldn't be done...

I wonder how this would work on date-less SLQ's.....

Beautiful ghosting just like my dollar. I can still see it a year later. But if you're not careful it'll rub off. I wonder whether it would slab as details. Not worth the cost but interesting to know.

Great experiment and interesting results. I will have to give this test a try with some SLQs one day. Thanks for the updates on the acid experiment.
