JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 02/02/2012 9:05 pm I purchased this 1939-D LWC to upgrade the one I had. It really has alot of pink and purple toning in it that the photos do not show well. The sellers 2x2 simply stated CH-BU. What do you think it grades? One other question I have is you will notice there is a green spot at 8:00 and there is another one right next to Lincolns shoulder at about 7:00. I did not notice these spots at the coin shop. Is this of major concern? Do you think it is a candidate for verdi-care Report this Post to the Staff

VC is very gentle and will not strip natural patina. However, there's no need to just go dunking the whole coin in and I would not recommend that. When you get to these nicer, higher grade coins you need to simply spot treat. Use as tiny of a drop as you can, just enough to cover a spot, let it sit a couple minutes, then carefully blot it off and let dry. If the verdigris is light, it will come right off.
