Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10470 Posts	Posted 05/05/2026 9:04 pm Doesn't really seem that bad. It may be worthy of the effort to conserve it - I recently won a 1908-S Indian cent that also has a ED/corrosion details label with the exact intention to give it an acetone/Verdi-care treatment.
