This is a metal detector find and therefore, has some micro-porosity on it's surfaces.

It has some verdigris too, on the obverse which I am hoping is removed by BadThad's Verdi-Care.

I will post after pictures as well

Good luck vermontensium. Does Verdi-Care get rid of verdigris too? I thought it was more of a protecting substance. I need to pick me up some.
