Nothing You Can Do For This Girl.

In addition to the ridiculous price, the seller has no brains. I contacted and suggested Verdicare, EMPHASIZING that it is not considered cleaning because it, like acetone, does not react with the coin surface, and only removes foreign matter. The reply I got was that the seller doesn't believe in cleaning coins.


That's okay, seller. You try to sell that poor thing at that price, and I'll sit over here with my "junk" IHC that turned out to be FOUR DIAMONDS when I got the verdigris off (thanks, Thad!).

OK, what about this beauty?

I dug it metal detecting several years ago.
It was in much worse shape until several extended soaks in 3% Hydrogen Peroxide.

Should I try more soaking.
That is my plan at this time.
Or, is there some other way, Acetone, Specialized Coin Cleaners, ETC?

The re-sized pik does not show so much of the detail.
But I am fairly sure this coin would not grade outside of G4, perhaps a bit better:)

Thanks,

TOO MUCH DIRT, NOT ENUFF TIME!
