Default dental gold?

I had a tooth extracted today. It had been crowned with gold. They gave me
back the gold crown, tooth still in it of course.

I seem to recall hearing that Coca-Cola actually dissolves teeth. Is that
a workable solution to removing the old tooth from the gold crown? Is
there a better one?

Try heat. I think the glue would fail before the gold would melt.
