That's an impressive makeover, Marc, congrats!

I was digging through a box of miscellaneous coin stuff today and ran across my Verdi-Care. Woooohoooo!


Use it sparingly. It works like gold for me!

Thanks! Yes, I have used it before. Thad hooked me up quite a while back when he was in between selling it and it was not available. It went missing for a while and finally ran across it again buried in that box.

Thank you.

I can tell you one thing. If it wasn't for that clip, no way people would have believed it was the same coin. That clip saved me!

@Marc Ingram: that is amazing! I recently bought a 2 oz bottle my self and ordered another 2oz bottle after I was 1/2 way through :D I'm thinking about order more already just in case!

If your process was at all different than the instructions would you be able to do a quick walk through?

Thank you!

Sure. The 2 oz bottle I have has got to be over 10 years old. I can't remember when I bought it. It's so old, the label has worn off! I will take pictures of it tomorrow. I don't have a clue what the label even said. I use the VERDI-CARE very sparingly. I only use it on my special copper coins.

The process for this coin was very simple. I first gave it a good acetone bath. I submerged the coin in a small glass bowl of 100% acetone. I used saturated Q-tips to "gently" VERY GENTLY rub the coin for several few minutes. I took the coin out of the acetone and dried it with a micro fiber cloth.

I then put 2 drops of verdi-care on one side of the coins first. I slowly worked the verdi-care into the surface of the coin with another Q-tip for several minutes. Then I let it sit for 30 minutes and repeated the verdi-care process again with the same Q-tip. The residue or whatever it was on the coin, actually came off onto the Q-tip. As the Q-tip got dirty the coin slowly restored

I repeated the process on the other side of the coin. I was surprised be the results as anyone! I then submitted it for grading. Easy Peasy!

Thanks for that! I've been afraid of using q tips as I read others say they can scratch the surface but perhaps being gentle is the key. I'll have to give it a shot :D

Keep in mind, it's all personal preference and the value of the coin. These aren't thousand dollar coin I'm working on.

How much is this clipped 46 cent worth?..... 10 or 15 bucks?!?!

VC acts as a very good lubricant, as long as the surface is wet with product, no scratching should occur.

Thanks for the on-going feedback @BadThad!

Here the bottle I was talking about, I've had for many years. Not much left. I'm trying to make it last. The wording on the label is completely gone. Not a clue what it actually said.
