Not sure what to think of this coin—reverse looks bad and obverse looks good—what grade—cost me $20-the darker image is actual color

Nice coin, but it looks like it may have been buried for some time

Acetone, no. Verdi-Care, yes.

The active corrosion on the reverse needs to be neutralized ASAP -- that "wet look" with the green patches is an ill portent if not promptly treated.

I'd give it a Verdi-Care treatment quickly before that green corrosion on the reverse starts getting worse.

VG-10 details, environmental damage. This one is too far gone to make any difference.
