My first "Bodybag"

I just received my first bodybag from PCGS. PVC residue. My question is this something that can be corrected or treated? It's a 1808 capped bust 50C that would grade at AU-58 at least in my opinion. Any thoughts?

If you never noticed any pvc before submitting, It may be minor enough to be corrected.

acetone bath overnight. Be sure to use glass as acetone eats plastic and be sure to not let the
acetone evaporate from the surface of the coin. I use small baby food jars with the lids sealed.
If it is PVC it will be removed. Period. Now as long as the PVC did not eat into the surface
metal you should be fine. The acetone will not effect the metal of the CBH, not the tone.
Be sure to follow full caution using acetone as it is strong stuff in the pure state...very
flammable and irritating with noxious fumes etc etc etc.
Hope this helps.
