Don't ask why, but as the title suggest, I would need to disolve an elastic band that dried on an old tango bitten coin internal design... Do you think I could try acid ? or should I test with dissolvant first ? ethanol ? What would you suggest ? I'm just a blind Con that lost his I... remember, Magic's everywhere...

My coin is now beyond repair but it gave me an idea for a bent coin routine final so I won't have to trash it... I'm just a blind Con that lost his I... remember, Magic's everywhere...
