Dearborn Moderator United States 98039 Posts	Posted 07/13/2024 4:01 pm what a great DDO! nice find - when buying acetone - get the good stuff. pure acetone NOT fingernail polish remover - that has impurities in it that can ruin a coin. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

gigi2110 Pillar of the Community United States 1770 Posts	Posted 07/13/2024 4:17 pm You are welcome Tacc!! Thank you @Dear!! Thank you for the information! Do you think that using EZEST is going to harm thi Zinc coin? Or is just better to use it with silver coins and use acetone for this one? gigi2110 Report this Post to the Staff
oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 07/13/2024 7:00 pm Acetone will not hurt your coin, soak it for several hours rinse with distilled water or tap water if you do not have distilled. Pat dry do not rub or touch coin without proper latex gloves. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 98039 Posts	Posted 07/13/2024 9:31 pm Please post up images after your soak, if you can. I would love to see the differences. Collecting since 1972.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/14/2024 04:12 am EZEST will damage the coin.DO NOT USE IT. Using ezest is cleaning, pure acetone is conserving...big difference. 100% pure acetone only. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/14/2024 04:15 am Forgot to answer your question about the toning. 100% pure acetone will not remove what toning is there now, but it might stop whatever toning might have continued. That said, the toning is not eye appealing on that coin anyways, IMHO. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 07/14/2024 05:28 am Never understood why folks suggest dipping potentially expensive coins. The coin looks AU but could go MS, which would make it a registry-grade coin. Getting "details, altered surfaces" back from PCGS would not make one's day. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/14/2024 06:33 am gigi2110, After acetone looks better to me. tropicalbats, To be clear,are you talking about acetone or ezest? With the marks on the temple and chin among others I do not think it has a chance at MS. Low AU maybe. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
