I'd be a little nervous that VerdiCare might affect the color of the coin. I share that same concern, that's why acetone first. Now if it messed with it a little, I'd be okay, I'd rather have an uncorroded example. Alternatively, I can send it to a buddy of mine who used to work at NCS and have him deal with it, which honestly sounds like the best idea. |

I'm at MS-63, but am not an expert in this series.
As an aside I love Verdicare. It's a shame it is no longer made. I no longer us it on my red cents as it does tend to darken the coins. However for RB or Brown...like I said..I LOVE IT.

I'm seeing just the lightest of rub on the tips of arrows I think and weak around the diamonds but I don't think it's enough to go into AU territory. MS64 for me as well. Coin sure has excellent eye appeal! A stunning look. Quote:

I've never had Verdi-Care change the color of any of my coins yet, I've left a couple Two Cent coins in it for over a week that were really corroded. But of course your millage may vary.

Beautiful coin and I'd leave as is, I don't see any corrosion, unless on reverse at bottom.

This is a copper-nickel coin and doesn't get color designations. I didn't know that! I only have 1 IHC that's uncirculated so I'm not really up on these, but I always thought they gave them color designations! I'll be reading up on these over the next few days. PLEASE, teach me more!  ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Yeahhhhhh. It's getting conserved and regarded.  |

That small patch of corrosion obviously had an impact. Hope the conservation doesn't affect the beautiful toning!

As per usual, looks a lot different than Not-So-Trueview.
Good luck! Post some before and after pics along the way.

Then I'll change it to Occasionally - Trueview!
I do feel it is undergraded. Out of curiosity, what were you hoping for on this one?

I was hoping for a 65 or so. I think the corrosion may have hurt it. On the bright side, it looks like it's just on the surface.
