Dip it? All Lincoln had to do was look at the bottle and that verdigris jumped right off him! Lol.
No, it was about 5 minutes little less actually.

Would this not be considered 'cleaning' a coin?

Looks like you saved it! Take a picture using the same conditions/lighting as you first picture. I might use them if you don't mind.
Thanks for sharing!

The obverse from what I could tell might be an XF40. If there is good separation between cheek and jaw, the ear is complete with slight wear behind it.
The reverse looks to me to be a VF20-30.
I would grade it a VF35.
Wish the pics were clearer. I would suggest using PCGS's photograde on their web site and if you have a tablet like an IPad its a free application.

Much better after picture other than it should be 600x600 like the before picture.

Thad, that was intentional, so I could just post it again to get the amazing Verdi-Care more exposure! LOL... Kidding... I will re-scan.
