Nothing too unusual here, but its overall appearance just really appealed to me for whatever reason....

Break out the pure acetone and remove what looks like PVC damage. Otherwise, nice.

That was already on my "to do" list. The gunk was soft and the acetone treatment very effective in removing it. Here's how the coin looks now:

I suppose I should mention that there're two distinct varieties for this year/mint, this being the "oblong dentils & narrow J" type. Neither variation commands a premium over the other.
