rocktowngal Pillar of the Community United States 594 Posts	Posted 06/18/2012 1:50 pm Can this coin be cleaned with Verdi-Care or is it a lost cause? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 06/18/2012 2:00 pm Verdi-Care would conserve it and stop further corrosion, but it will not remove the corrosion that is already there. That coin is a lost cause. It's a very common date and not worth any amount of effort at conservation. I think I would just spend it somewhere or if you save copper cents, throw it in the junk copper bin. Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19945 Posts	Posted 06/19/2012 07:51 am VC is NOT a cleaner. It will only remove light, organic surface debris from a 43 steel cent. It will not remove rust or zinc oxides. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
