That nickel would respond very well to VERDI-CARE™!

Hey ... am I too late BadThad? Have not seen many world coins as possible candidates ..... so here is a 1905 Copper Chinese 10 Cash in dire need of some love .... black gunk on the obverse and some verdigras on the reverse.   I'm willing to offer her up for possible help with your product ..... David
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

I have a proof that's perfect for this, and also a 1943 Canadian nickel, and a Belgian aluminium. Sadly, my camera is down. I will buy a bottle, and post before/after pics!

Here's one for the wheezy lab. I already have a bottle I bought and the beta bottle leftover so this is just to add to your contest for fun. When this 1802 LG Cent arrives that I bought for $29.51 shipped this evening I will post the results with an edit. Hope it comes out nice. I see there are a couple scratches in the field on the obverse. From what we have learned, these should remain looking old.   PS: If anyone thinks this looks better in this present state than doing anything to it, please speak up, but I still think I'll give Verdi-care a shot at it.

THE WINNER IS......
jokingjoker! He showed me the most examples that I feel would be conserved well!
Thanks everyone for playing! It was a tight race as you guys submitted some great candidate coins. AdamE almost had me with that rotated die coin, I know that verdigris could be removed easily.
I might just run this contest again so get your pictures ready!

Wow! What a great morning surprise. In all honesty I thought this contest would attract more attention. Wonder if folks just didn't notice it or if they are reluctant to try a new product on their coins. Badthad, I will PM you with my address but please include instructions on how to use the product the best way. Thanks again for the contest and to all that participated.

Just click on the link in my sig.  I'm sure you'll find more uses than just that proof. You might want to wait until jokingjoker tries it on his proofs. I have no idea if it will help them yet.

Ok so some before and after pics: First the 1932 LWC: Before obverse:  After obverse:  This coin had heavy green spots that I believed to be verdigris or PVC damage. After using the Verdi-Care solution the spots seem to turn a black color, or atleast darker. Overall the coin has a more pleasing appearance. Besides the spots, which I didnt think would do too much.
