ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19208 Posts	Posted 01/27/2023 07:29 am Suggest giving the coin a looooooong soak in 100% acetone. Could go a long way in clearing away any 'gunk' which may be present. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97435 Posts	Posted 01/27/2023 07:35 am looks like it was lacquered or 'shellacked' or something, there is a lot of gunk of this coin to tell anything from it. a good LONG acetone might help this coin out greatly.
