Discoloration on this Barber quarter.

I bought this Barber quarter on Ebay and there was gunk on the reverse. I soaked it in acetone and there appeared to be toning under the gunk. Does this retract from the value of the coin?

Looks like it left a stain. Not the worst thing, but I would consider it detracting from the eye appeal of the coin.
The reverse seems to look odd in general.

 

I could like with the obverse but not the reverse.

 

Your coin is CORRODED. I think that may affect its value, don't you?

 

I like the obverse but I don't like the reverse.

 

I agree, therefore it's damaged. Sorry Bud!!

 

Oh well, I didn't pay that much for it.
