Sweet! Did you soak this or did you use the circular turning method on a cloth and just let air dry?

I applied a few drops of verdi-care then used a soft cactus needle to work the grime and debris loose. Took a while but it was worth it

Must be the lighting on the coin. Have you adjusted the contrast on the image? That can fix it a bit.

I normally adjust the brightness, I'll experiment with contrast for my next post and see if I can get it a littlt better. Thanks

Here is the formula I used and the edited/unedited images so you can see the differences:

Here is the coin grouping images:

Do a search on ebay for this program. I've picked up copies of it for less the $25. I have a continual search for these there and I snag them when they are less than that. You just have to be patient till the right deal comes along. Don't get the updated 5.5. You have to have the full program instead of this to add to it. I couldn't see no difference by adding this program. So it is a waste of money for my uses.
