About Me
I started collecting coins 40 years ago after being gifted a tub of mercury dimes and buffalo nickels from my great grandfather. I always admired the large silver dollars at coin store display cases but as a kid I could never afford them. During Covid I picked the hobby back up in earnest and completed multiple sets including Morgan and Peace dollars. I love the hunt and am currently re-doing my dollar sets to include all CAC or CACG coins.

- I got this coin in hand and then realized the black streak on Liberty’s face is PVC. The cloudy dark area on the reverse it likely also PVC. Is this worth restoring via a dip in acetone or should I return it to the dealer? The coin looks like it could upgrade to a 63 but it’s hard to tell if PVC caused any pitting.I got this coin in hand and then realized the black streak on Liberty’s face is PVC.

- I am nervous about restoration services, like PCGS. Always makes me hesitate and to be honest, "Details" is a dirty word, no offense. I would hate to give up a straight grade and get details. Oh the humanity....I am nervous about restoration services, like PCGS. Always makes me hesitate and to be honest, "Details" is a dirty word, no offense.

- So, the good news is that I was able to remove any trace of PVC. Unfortunately, the coin came back UNC Details from CACG .So, the good news is that I was able to remove any trace of PVC. Unfortunately, the coin came back UNC Details from CACG ðŸ˜.

- bretsan you only used acetone yeah? Bc that would not trip a cleaned designation on silver.
Are there hairlines only visible at some angles under a strong light?[bretsan] you only used acetone yeah? Bc that would not trip a cleaned designation on silver.

On the Image Secure pic you can see some hairlines near the motto, “In God We Trust”.[SilverAge3] I only used acetone.
