Yeah, a keeper for sure, but still a goner... AU details corroded, and would be a low valued hole filler that looks nicer than other hole filler coins in my opinion.  |

Goner for sure. The corrosion build-up is beyond Verdi-care.

I don't want to come across as blasphemous, but (hypothetically) what would happen if I put ms70 on it?

Nothing good. At best, it would look like a cleaned, corroded coin. At worst, it would look like a cleaned, corroded coin with a funky color.

Almost looks like a corroded surface from a dug coin. Seeing it's gone already, try soaking it in some olive oil for a (long) while. Maybe it will get rid of some of that "green" and darken up the surfaces some.

Pretty much a goner.
Errers and Varietys.

It's a lost cause, so experiment with it as you like, but this will never straight-grade.

This one is a goner. Don't waste anymore time or verdicare.

I appreciate all the feedback. It wasn't expensive so I bought it to see if verdicare would work on it. No big deal.

Not a goner IMO, yes to a dirt coin. If you want to experiment look at my sig (blog) Festus
I swing a metal detector and have a knack for finding dirty old coins. Dirt coin restoration projects - https://www.prodetecting.com/restorationsDirt coin restoration blog - https://www.prodetecting.com/blog/ccawDirt coin dig videos - https://www.youtube.com/@prodetecting |
