    Do you think an acetone dip would help?

    What a shame, an attractive coin. An acetone soak wouldn't hurt.

    Look forward to seeing the results. Hopefully It gets some of that gunk off.

    I grew up right in the pony express trail. When I was in Boy Scouts we earned a medal by doing some stuff and riding horses 40 miles along the actual route.
