Just rinse it with acetone, no brainer.

Using those pictures, the coin appears to have been cleaned/whizzed and retoned.

Some previous owner did a lot more than remove the dust.

I've seen 1922 no D's in that grade with "details" sell for $2600. If it grades problem free probably 5K+. I paid $1338. No chance of it getting a 'problem-free' grade huh?

That's likely why it sold for $1388.

Hopefully when you get that one it will be better than the photo. Regardless, I feel something is just wrong. IF that coin is as shown, even if cleaned, should be in the 4 to 5 thousand area. Keep us informed of what the TPGS says.
