<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 5658543, member: 1765&quot;]This doesn&#039;t look like an acetone fix.&nbsp; There&#039;s a combination of removable crud and non-removable corrosion.&nbsp; I&#039;d start by poking it with a stick (cactus spine or rose thorn) under a stereoscope.&nbsp; A light oil might penetrate and soften some of the removable crud to make it easier and more effective.&nbsp; Constantly clean debris from the coin and the stick so that the debris doesn&#039;t scratch the coin.&nbsp; This is not a quick job, but then some people will soak coins in olive oil for years.&nbsp; Of course, this all requires you to crack the coin out.&nbsp; If you&#039;d rather not, then the best course of action is to trade up to a nicer one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
