    send it to NCS, and have them conserve, they'll make that look beauticious using the right process. IMHO.

    Will you never learn? Swallow it now, and tonight, retrieve it, and you'll find that your stomach juices will have cleaned it up to a mirror finish.

    You'll need a young priest and an old priest...

    How do you separate two priests in the Vatican?

    With a bucket of cold water!

    It may actually be an alien nanotech virus aimed destroying our monetary base, starting with round fifties. I'd ask Skyrocket for advice but he has apparently left for another planet and is out of comms range at the present time.

    It looks like copper residue ... you could try dabbing it with some vinegar on a cotton bud ...

    I'm still on this planet fellow Earthling. Just been busy doing work on my country retreat property installing new 400 meter long wire fence because "old" one was no good. Think Roo's knocked most of that fence down because it adjoins state forest. But it was like that when I bought the property years ago. So I used concrete footings in every second fence post of new one. Like to see Roo's knocked this one down. ;) I also have much other work that needs doing there too. Going back there again shortly. The 3 hour drive there is a real pain in the butt. :(

    Still visiting/reading here though, but only briefly. Enough to read/notice your nice comments about me. ;)

    Good to see you back :) I was getting worried.

    At least you are getting to do some outdoor work. Better than being stuck in an office all day, every day. :(
