I am not sure what the joke is, but my question was serious and I am looking for some suggestions as to how to remove the solder. I believe that I will attempt to remove it with the soldering iron and a soft brush.
As to the value of the coin, I don't know just how much it might be worth but I tend to like the coin and don't want to ruin it. The coin is a Dime from Hawaii, dated 1883 and is in what I would call AU condition.
Thanks for your suggestions.
