I know that lasers can damage coins by removing some of the metal so you shouldn't use it for most things. However, I was curious if anyone has used it on old roached coins that are unidentifyable otherwise? I see videos of people on the East coast or Europe where they find a lot of old coins that are too worn to identify. I would think there wouldn't be any harm trying it on them. Also, has anyone tried on things like no date type coins such as buffalo nickels. I played with Nic-A-Date 30+ years ago and it was fun restoring the dates.
