A friend of mine brought this coin to me at the coin club meeting last night. She was concerned because the coin had no green on it when she bought it. I told her I would try to help out but no promises. I used VERDI-CARE and a very soft bristled brush. The brush was used very sparingly. Before   and after.   The obv needs a little more work but I think she will be happy with the results. Richard |

WOW!  All that verdigris was fairly young. I'm ashamed to admit that I would have not recommended VC for that ancient coin! I can't thank you enough for posting this ziggy....I learned something about my own product today.  The good thing is that the ReAcT2â„¢ will now protect the surfaces and the verdigris should not reappear with proper storage. Do you mind if I use your pictures for marketing purposes? They are GREAT pictures! |

I took the liberty of putting these next to each other so it's easier to see the results.   Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

I have a 1909 VDB Lincoln Cent that is developing the crud and was wondering a couple of things. Does the VC keep the verdigris from returning? Second, instead of purchasing an entire bottle for just one coin I was wondering... do coin dealers perform this service for a nominal fee? |

ncs may be able to restore coins in a similar manner, but it will be cheaper to do it yourself with verdicare

OK thanks for the info! Edit: I see the first question was already answered earlier, missed that the first time through this. I read it is a lot less expensive to buy it on ebay (6.95 and free shipping) so I will be picking one of those up! Edited by Nickelman

I was wondering why wizard coin supply doesn't offer the small size bottle so people can "try" it out before buying the 2oz. bottle? John1 |

Because the small bottle is so new to the marketplace. They will eventually carry it, we're working on it.
