This looks like a very nice coin except for the black stuff. I would almost give it an MS grade. What is the black stuff?

Hi.Ill try to post scans later this week.Full mint luster so is very difficult (for me)to take good pics.This black residue looks like sort of candy or something similar.Ill try acetone dip.Thanks for answers.

My opinion is acetone would be ok. (only my opinion). If it is candy and still abit sticky(?), it may attract other dust or dirt. Just my Two Cents. |

It is pure nickel, you will not hurt it with acetone.

Would acetone result in a designation of "Cleaned" by a TPG? Or is it undetectable, if only dipped? |

Acetone is fine to use and shouldnt affect its 'slabability' (new word? ... why not) I would say your coin grades as AU.

Was George assassinated here? The bullet holes to the left and right of the ear. Or is that an issue with the holder/picture?
