[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 2792710, member: 73995"]I usually don't do more than a minute. I have read here that no matter how long you soak it, acetone will not harm the coin. Although there are certain factors, acetone removes organic matter, and it may show damage that we cant see from your photo. The toning may change or turn splotchy, in the areas that have Gunk, or it may show some pitting. I would wait before attempting a soak, others here are better at seeing possible problem coins. Can you get a close up of the MM. I would like to see if it is a type 1 or type 2[/QUOTE]
