kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 03/07/2020 10:27 am You see stuff like that from old push-in coin albums. Definitely soak it in acetone as others have suggested. No rubbing but maybe a little bit of nudging with a Q-Tip during the soak to help move things along. Report this Post to the Staff
