Found this coin going through my dads stuff after he passed away. Looks a little tarnished but in good shape. Any suggestions on cleaning it up?

It was minted in New Orleans where my dads family was from and has a finger print on it so maybe I should just put it in one of those plastic coin containers and keep it as is. Thanks for the advice pals.
Morgans weigh 26.73 grams. If you are keeping it and dont care about value then baking soda and a drop of water makes a paste that cleans up silver pretty well. Cleaning does affect value.

You do not clean it up, leave it as is. Coin folk do not like them to be cleaned. Bob told me to check the weight it should weigh 1 troy oz
