Hi...I don't really recommend trying anything.Chances are you will make things worse.If the notes were valuable there are people called conservators who do repair work on rare currency.Of course there work is very expensive and not worth it on common notes.If you have any other questions let me know at marlofan@aol.com.

Does anyone know how I can remove coffee stains from the pages of a book? We aren't just looking at plain old black java here. We are talking milk and sugar too. Sigh. Yes, I know! What was I thinking? Reading and sipping coffee at the same time! Blame it on Starbucks!
