    If it is a 1922 it isn't worth bothering with. Why risk fooling around with dangerous chemicals?

    I'm guessing the OP is just having fun with his coin while enjoying the challenge of getting that gunk off the coin without damaging the coin.

    Knowledge is good but dangerous chemicals, when not carefully used, are not.
