Nice RPD! I might try a soak in distilled water first, Then go to other solutions. I doubt that even xylene or acetone would help your Nickel....

I see a mis aligned die, but NOT an off center.

Also the surfaces do not look correct.. Look at the recessed E and P. More unplated copper.
That is a haze on the coin. It is the beginning stage of toning. MS70 will remove it, but make sure that you do a thorough rinse of the MS70.
