Ya see, nobody knows what that sticky substance is, but it is possible it is PVC residue because when it gets old it often turns a brownish color, much like what we on the coin. And as we all know PVC residue will be harmful to the coin. Granted, it may be something else, but whatever it is it may also be harmful to the coin. And that's why it should be removed.</p><p><br /></p><p>And as has already been said, the acetone will not alter or change the coin's look in any other way.
