Seriously, some cheap "folders" as opposed to albums like Dansco don't always hold a coin securely due to the inconsistent hole size and any wear on the rim of the coin would add to the problem. Whenever I encounter a coin with glue residue it is on the reverse 99% of the time. Since a folder only gives you the option of showing one side of the coin and the traditional way of displaying a coin for obvious reasons is to show the obverse, it is my assumption that the coin was in such a folder or some sort of "display". Not a good practice at any rate but a novice may not consider that. Fortunately the acetone treatment seems to do the trick with no discernible damage to the coin. I suppose it would depend on what type of adhesive was used. Methinks that epoxy or some other super adhesive would present a greater challenge. By the way allcoinsnewbie, that's not a bad looking coin after treatment. Congrats!
