[QUOTE="mralexanderb, post: 680284, member: 7851"]I removed the coin from the acetone and scanned it. The results aren't as dramatic as the first bath it took. Still, I'm going to replace it in fresh acetone and give it more time. The green film on the reverse seems to be getting thinner, except between the top of the left wreath and the shield. That is pretty much filled in. It is very tempting to pick it out with a rose thorn but I shall resist. Running diagonally from 11 o'clock to 5, there are 7 spots on the obverse that look like they are more than a film. I'm hoping these will dissipate with more soaking in acetone. Bruce[/QUOTE]
