I have some coins that are in
flips with inserts that smell like cigarette smoke.
If anyone has any suggestions on these questions I would appreciate it:
1. Is it safe to say that if something was collected and flipped in the 60s and 70s that the
flip should be replaced?
2. I would like to save the inserts even though they have yellowed and smell of smoke. Does anyone know of a way to get the smell out of the inserts or do I just live with it?
3. Some of the coins also smell like smoke- should I give each one a distilled water/ brush?
4. A very few seem to leave a sticky green imprint on the flip- could this be from the long time in the
flip? Should these be treated any different?
Any advise is appreciated!
