Whoah, timewarp... I'd thought this old thread would've been archived for sure by now...

OK then, it's been over a year now since I looked at this coin; it's been sitting in a mylar flip in my album with the other Tasmanian tokens all this time. So, has time healed the wounds?

Personally, I think it has aged well.

The parts that turned fluorescent orange have, as expected, turned back into a more natural-looking brown colour, very close to the original colouration of the un-verdigrized surfaces - except for inside the pits where the verdigris lay, which have stayed a pale tan colour.

Most importantly, the Green Death has not returned. I am content.

I have had also some verdigriss coppers in the past, but I admire your patience with cleaning the green stains away. I myself have used a rubber that I normally use to remove pencildrawings to get the stains away..
