Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 10/25/2022 2:50 pm I used to make these for the kids in my chemistry class. 1 beaker 50 ml Nitric acid Step back and watch the clouds of brown gas and violent bubbling. Remove coin for an object lesson helping them remember what nitric acid does to metals. Replace coin and repeat this exercise until the disc is mostly unrecognizable as a quarter anymore!

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 10/25/2022 4:17 pm Acid soaked quarter. Much of the surfaces have been ruined. Most likely a chemistry class experiment. Spend it. Report this Post to the Staff
