<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3031616, member: 84179&quot;]generally, acetone will only work on organic junk stuck to the coin.&nbsp; If the actual metal in the coin has reacted, acetone won&#039;t do anything.&nbsp; BTW: Olive oil works a lot like acetone.&nbsp; If it&#039;s built up dirt and junk from being buried (think ancient coins) it might help, but if it&#039;s corrosion, don&#039;t bother</p><p><br /></p><p>Honestly, it looks shot, so you really can&#039;t hurt its value by experimenting (unless you soak it in acid for a while <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />).&nbsp;&nbsp; I would leave it alone as well.&nbsp; Not because it would hurt the value, just because I can&#039;t see putting the effort into something that probably won&#039;t work.&nbsp; But whatever you want to do is acceptable IMO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
