This post is two fold, first off I was going to "clean" off some junk from the original holder. looked like it had paint spatter on it. Anyway used acetone....bad idea it basically melted the plastic in roughly 10 seconds. Moral of the story dont use acetone on old PCI holders.I ended up cracking the coin. Second part, I can't find any information on the breen number 4861. Any help would be appreciated. Here is the coin in question.

If you are interested in the Wiley Bugert number for this die marriage it is WB-101 (old) and WB-12 (new) and has a rarity of R3.
