Curious on the forums thoughts on the discoloration/if there is a way to "clean" it without damage ? (I keep reading comments on this forum referencing glue and gunk and using acetone). I'm sure it's a natural aging of the coin but I'm curious your thoughts ? Thanks in advance ladies and gents. Report this Post to the Staff
