I bought this on ebay as my first type 2 Three Cent piece. Just wanted everyone opinions on the grading/details and if it needs an acetone bath. Thanks for your time!

With the obverse rim worn into the date and UNITED I would peg it at Good-4 at best. The reverse looks about VG but the obverse holds it back.

I don't see any reason for acetone. It's just a worn piece, suitable for a lower-grade type set.

Around a G-4 sounds about right.
