Gordianis III Silver Coin...destroyed :( What A Disaster

what do you mean by a success and not a failure?

Edit:Here is the coin before the cleaning .. it was a lot crustier too

I think it looks great too!! The details on the portrait is incredible compared to the other Gordian III coins I've seen.
However I dont think this could be a fouree..

During the Crisis of the Third Century, constant wars required a lot of coins to be produced, leading to heavy debasing of precious metal coinage. The antoninianus was eventually debased to the point where flans (blank metal disks) were produced with 5% silver or less, and pickled to dissolve the copper from the surface producing a spongy surface of almost pure silver. When these coins struck, the force of striking would produce a thin shiny layer of silver on the surface, which would quickly wear away. These "silvered" coins are not considered fourrées, since they are not actually plated since the metal is actually a continuous layer and these coins were not created to deceive.

This is what I read from wikipedia..Can anyone tell me if mine is an actually fouree or not?
If so..what could this coin be worth?

Considering the condition in which you found the coin in, you did a fantastic job cleaning it up. IMO the coin is still a keeper. If your trying to find another example check out vcoins.com.

Thanks! Id like to think I did a good job although I can't help but feel a little bit sad hahaha..I'd like to see what coins you have in mind, pishpash! I'll email you shortly.

The damage appears to have been done well before you got to the coin, and I don't see how this can be considered anything but a huge success. I'd love to clean one and have it come out like this, let alone find one! Although I am in the US so it'd be a little less likely to happen upon one, haha.

If it is any consolation Gordian IIIs aren't super valuable, so it's not like the chip is the difference between a 4 figure find and a three figure find.

That damage is not your fault at all. That was done long ago. If anything you demonstrated a wonderful attempt at conservation. Kudos to you and well done. You did not abrade any of the fine minty surfaces so I think you did alright.

No secrets at all!
Here's what I did:

Place your coin in a ceramic bowl..Pour almosta cup of olive oil and a teaspoon and a half of lemon juice
Then Place the bowl in a pot of water that is filled right below the rim of the bowl.
Boil the water just below boiling point and leave it for 45 minutes
Come back and see all the green or brown goo fill the bowl xD
Do some manual cleaning to remove any stubborn dirt
Repeat if neccessary

If you look at my last picture...you can see the details of the coin being there..but I had no idea that the coin wasn't fully silver..
I assumed the brown rust was there because it was covered in soil rich in iron..the soil here is like blood red
So I would manually remove the reddish brown crust with a needle..I didnt know the silver was cracked so I guess I weakened that part of the coin and after I proceeded to boil it again..that small part chipped off..*sigh*
