brefos77 Pillar of the Community United States 792 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 7:50 pm I found this last night and I tried to take this stuff off, but it seems like it's actually part of the coin itself. Do I have a keeper, or just pm damage? Report this Post to the Staff

rockdude Pillar of the Community United States 1807 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 7:54 pm No doubt it's some epoxy or JB Weld. What have you tried to remove it with? Report this Post to the Staff
brefos77 Pillar of the Community United States 792 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 8:08 pm Fingernail, keys, whatever I had around me. What do you recommend using to remove it? I just want to be 100% sure. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 10:14 pm I would start with 'Goo-gone' But the question is, why bother? Is there something you know about the coin that you haven't shown us? If it's just a memorial and thre's nothing special about it, just take it to the bank as is. Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 11:11 pm If it is a DDO or WAM or some other significant Lincoln, why bother is right. I'd just spend it. Unless that is that you want to experiment. This would be a perfect coin to work on with different methods. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
brefos77 Pillar of the Community United States 792 Posts	Posted 04/11/2009 6:27 pm Thanks for the replies. Chuck, vermontensium answered your question. It's just something to experiment with. Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 04/11/2009 9:07 pm Okay, no problem at all. I just didn't see a point as far as the coin goes. If it's just a good test for the possibility that something valuable might come along, I completely understand. I've saved junk coins before just to test on them when I come up with a new concoction.
