[QUOTE="Maxfli, post: 2135976, member: 69089"]As others have said, this is an easy DIY job with acetone (not nail polish remover). You'll find in the paint supplies section at a home improvement store. Doug may be right, but that gunk is pretty thick, so be prepared for the possibility that even an overnight soaking may not get it all without some gentle nudging with a Q-tip. And even if it does, I suggest a second bath in clean acetone to make sure there's no residue remaining on the coin. Afterwards, you might consider coating it with Verdi-Care.
