I'd try soaking in acetone then see what remains. Might be an old coating of some type of varnish applied to the surface. Thanks, Doug.

I've got it in acetone right now.
If that doesn't do much I may try Verdicare.
More photos to follow if there's any change.

Quote: I like it. Needs a (gentle) acetone cleaning?  I should've mentioned before. Be gentle like John1 said. After all it seems to be in good condition for a hundred year old coin. Thanks, Doug.

Where it doesn't flow over the tops of the devices, is where the circulation had worn it off those devices.

Here it is after a soak in acetone and treatment with Verdicare. Sorry about the cat hair on the reverse. It's an occupational hazard when you live in a house with four felines.

I'm going to put this coin on ebay, but thought first I'd see if anyone on CCF might be interested in it.
