sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/03/2016 10:23 pm Nice if you can get these in MS60 or better. I have a nice type set of them, George V to Elizabeth 11, 1967 in MS. Paid a little over the odds for my Tombac Beaver. VerdiCare OK Edited by sel_69l 02/03/2016 11:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff

These coins are so inexpensive that unless this particular one has special sentimental value you can replace it for a couple of bucks. Verdi-Care would likely do the job but you can buy a certified MS64 for less than the price of the product. For wildflowerAB I don't believe it's available from any Canadian supplier. https://goccf.com/t/146885 I have also seen it available to Canada on ebay "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 02/04/2016 01:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
