>none of it seems to matter for the market value of the coin
That's not entirely true, although some will have similar values to restrikes there are some more elusive dates with low mintages (turn of the century, 1906, 1926, 1935 original strike). And I'd always have a preference over the original, restrikes to me are practically bullion grade not numismatic.
I lucked out and got one of the original 1935s priced as one of the restrikes. The guy didn't notice.

about to bathe this in acetone for a few minutes if I'll post results in case anyone has been considering using acetone to remove debris from their coins and would like to see the effects

I fucking kneel

Hey guys have come into possession of a possibly numismatic coin that I may sell later on to buy more cheapies. It's an original strike 1935 Swiss 20 Francs, of which only 150,000 were made compared to the 20 million restrikes. It seems to have decent value above melt in higher grades, and I got it for the price of an ordinary one. It looks to be decently high grade. The one issue I have with it though is that there is a black double line of substance, if I had to guess left by tape or paper or twine or something similar. it doesn't seem to be engrained into the coin and it sits on the surface. Would an acetone soak take the black mark off without reducing its numismatic value? I've done some digging and the general consensus is that it's harmless but I just wanted to make sure what grading companies think about it in case I want to maximize its numismatic value.
