<p>[QUOTE="Rufus@frockstarvintage, post: 371838, member: 5939"][USER=7785]@serafino[/USER] - The green gunk usually serves to join two surfaces, so you are most likely correct. Oil will loosen it but WD-40 will definitely do the trick. I'd take a small dish (or lid from a small jar) & put a bit in, then lay the coin gunk side down in the WD. Leave it as long as it takes - you may have to scrape gunk & repeat the process if the stuff is stubborn.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
