Get rid of that bronze disease as soon as you can. There ARE good treatments around.

Looks like it has been in the ground for around 45 seconds..nice touch leaving a bit of dirt on the coin.

Great find, looks to be EF!
Too bad he cleaned it. Coins like this should be left to the professionals.

That's what I said too! Looked like a EF SVDB pulled out of the ground! Makes me want to go detect!

Is it just me, or does that one not look right? I'm not seeing the slant in the B and everything else just looks too... sharp? Might just be my imagination though.

At this point I would send to either the PCGS or NGC professional conservation service and not damage the coin any further by trying any cleaning recommendations by anyone here.

Indeed, I saw a poster on that forum recommend catsup. NO NO NO!! This is a rare and valuable piece of history and well worth paying the money to professionals.
