Good new year to all.

My first arrival of this year. Hoping to improve this coin as time permits, thought I'd share it here.

Just couldn't seem to get any clear pics with my phone:

Potentially very nice. Are you going DW or oil route?

Nice enough without soaking - just a little brushing should do the trick.

Well, not sure I improved this coin but thought I would show it anyways

Now that I see them side by side I like it better as it was, having the dirt cover up the surface imperfections.

The obverse seems to look better after cleaning but the reverse looked better before in my opinion.

well, it looks about the same. I thought the cleaning would bring out some more details maybe, but the dirt wasn't obscuring much was it. i'd say no harm, no foul at worst...i actually like the cleaned a bit better.
