T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 09:03 am 391846393414 I just bought this Nickel on E-BAY for a good price . I'm thinking a long Acetone soak and then a Verdi-Care application to rid this coin of Verdigris and what ever else is on it . Suggestions from members welcomed . Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 09:10 am I need to get some Verdi-care but your plan sounds good. I have had some success on metal detecting find with a long soak in mineral oil as well. Nice coin ! Report this Post to the Staff
Chute72 Pillar of the Community United States 1314 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 11:25 am Get some. Do it. Like many others, I hemmed and hawed about spending a few dollars for Verdi-Care, but I'm glad I did. I got a trial size, and it has lasted two years. And I apply it liberally - perhaps more so than required. It is a part of my tool kit as much as 2x2s and magnifiers. It won't work on everything and miracles aren't guaranteed, but it won't hurt anything and it is doing good even if you can't see it. Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 4:05 pm I think you will have good luck with an over night acetone soak. Works better on nickel for some reason. I don't know why, but I do keep my eyes out for coins just like this one as the green often scares most bidders. Report this Post to the Staff
