I did a 20 minute soak while I did the dishes. When I went out to the patio and looked, the gunk was still on it and I was a bit bummed. However as I picked it up all the gunk started flaking away...  ...first time I have ever had success with acetone. Man that stuff's nasty. Anywayssss, here she is...  ...

Successful conservation!
Was there any change on the obverse?

You win.  I'm guessing the next step is a stint in your pocket. |

The obverse didn't change at all. I'll probably just put her in a coin envelope and file her away with all the rest. Lol, I have so many that I really need to start selling them. I file them away by chronological order, how many diamonds etc, and how much I paid.

Oh, I will put a coating of Verdi-Care on her. It seems to add a little life back to a coin as the acetone really dried it out.

Very nice. Sit that IHC on the window sill for a week or two and she will be just fine. |
