i posted this coin in the 'circulation finds' thread. it's pretty cruddy. i'll soak it in acetone for a few days and go from there. it looks like some of the crud over time has chipped away from beneath the bison on the reverse.

You can go gonzo on it without affecting the value, so tear it up!

Sorry but cleaning is a no-no.

You are going to conserve it.
