The second of my Swedish 10 Ore coins is a 1917 with a fair amount of verdigris. Like the previous 1937 example it is .400 silver.
Again, I applied one drop of Verdi-Care on the obverse and reverse, then let sit for less than 1 hour.

The verdigris turned to slime with the consistency of peanut butter. I didn't use the tooth pick, but immersed it in acetone and while submerged, brushed it gently with a small artist's paint brush. The slime dissolved entirely, leaving no particulate matter.
You can see that the protected areas have a lighter patina.
I chose to stop there. It is a nice European war-time issue deserving to keep its well earned bumps and tone.
