moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 12/13/2016 8:55 pm I don't think acetone will help. Try verdicare. It can't hurt. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 12/14/2016 04:01 am I am glad you got it cheaply! With bronze disease, keep away from other coins. Verdicare may help a little, but it will not increase the value in this condition. Report this Post to the Staff
realeswatcher Pillar of the Community United States 1962 Posts	Posted 12/14/2016 4:19 pm Honestly, no price you paid for this example is cheap enough. Even if it had a perfect planchet, there's nothing left to it wear-wise. But here, you also have the surface scuzz... being aided and abetted by as-made planchet/alloy problems (which is of course common on these). This is not a particularly rare type in lower-mid grade (though for better mintmarks in nice grade on a good planchet...) - you can get a 100x better piece on that site full of scammers and crazies, the ebay. Under $10 yielded these infinitely more decent specimens: http://www.ebay.com/itm/FRANCE-1792...152325614660 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1793-FRANCE...391616454188 http://www.ebay.com/itm/France-1792...152268089207 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1792-AA-Fra...371776266813 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1793-France...232131967042 Report this Post to the Staff
