Clean up on Mercury Dime with Bezel

[Jaws2]

Clean up on Mercury Dime with Bezel, must be two dimes in bezel holder?

I took a propane torch to it, the bulk of the build up came off with a pop, exploded when it got hot the rest of it started to crumble when I put more heat to the coin and than I just scraped it off with my finger nail.

if u can get the top to unscrew u can get the coins out and clean it up even more MR TUFF

I agree with Mr. Tuff !! Maybe a mini treasure map inside, between the two coins.

Good clean up, how did you do it ?

Keep @ it and HH !!
