    > Hi,
    >
    > A few years ago I purchased an uncut pane of four NYC waterworks
    > notes. A recent XRay analysis indicates a trace presence of barium
    > (Ba) throughout the sheet. This may be bothersome, as Ba wasn't
    > isolated until 1808, and the absence of similar metals from the piece
    > suggests that the Ba 'contaminated' the sheet well after it was
    > supposedly printed. I was wondering if anyone can tell me what
    > chemicals might be used by a dealer to make old paper look better, or
    > if there are any particularly common acid free (and Ba containing)
    > mountings that might help explain the presence of Ba in this sheet.
    >
    > Thanks. Happy Holidays.
