I soaked it for 12h and was going to change aceton, but saw no trace of the green goo, so it looks gone. Moniker, you need to rinse it with acetone again. The goo came off in the soak, but was dissolved in the acetone. When the acetone evaporated from your coin, it left some residue on your coin. In time this residue could react with your coin.

Impulse bid in an auction. I'm not sure why, because I have one I bought from The Royal Mint. It's not colorized - the fields act like a diffraction grating. UK 2 Pounds 2024: Britannia and Liberty - PCGS MS69  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Thank you, MintedNotPrinted! The effect is more impressive (and colorful) with direct lighting. But the scuffs on the slab show up more.  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
