Looks nice, should I soak in acetone, or just place in my album as is - Not interested in selling

Let me know and thanks as always. Stay safe, cheers, Joe

There’s no harm in using acetone on this coin. I’d say do it if you’re thinking of it.

I'm not sure there is anything on the coin acetone would remove. I imagine there may be a tiny thin layer of grime on it. perhaps if you want to try for that.

Acetone, just to ensure that there's no PVC.

I think that acetone would improve the look of the coin and it will not harm the surfaces.

Acetone will not harm the coin and will remove any organic residues. Cheers, RickO

I’d leave it since you say yourself it looks nice

mbogoman

It won't remove any of the toning around the rims if that's what you were looking for...

i don't really see the need for acetone, but it shouldn't hurt it if you do it right. if you rinse, be sure to use distilled water.
