How do you remove double-sided tape from paper currency?

A friend gave me three old deutchmarks (sp?) that have the remnants of double-sided tape on the back side where someone probably had them in a scrapbook. What's the best method for removing the tape without destroying the currency?|||I'd try putting them in the freezer... the old glue would probably just flake right off then. You can also get goo remover at your local hobby lobby, michaels, craft store in the scrapbooking isle that gets off any and all kinds of glue from the backs of photographs, I bet it would work great on the currency as well.|||Try Pam cooking spray or other cooking oil. WD-40 perhaps? Should wash off easily afterwards.





Be careful though, laundering money is illegal. LOL!|||Try using your hair dryer to heat the adhesive then use a razor blade on a 30degree angle and scrape the adhesive off of the bill.





Good luck!!
