I have a nice 72 DDO that at some time a real bananna head plated with what looks like gold plating. Does anyone know how I could, maybe I should ask, if I could, get plating off of a coin? Any opinions will be appreciated.

I have no idea, I would talk to a metallurgist.

I imagine there's probably some sort of acid that will eat gold and leave copper alone, but I would follow Garry's advice and see a good metallurgist.
