Hi I have resently found a penny that has some pretty coin toning that I like. The problem is that the back of the penny has a little corrosion. Is it posible to remove it without removing the toning?
Rest in Peace

If you can provide photos it would greatly help us to offer an opinion. Generally, if a coin has suffered corrosion, there is no way to repair that problem as the oxidation eats into the coin surface.

Also toning IS corrosion, just aesthetically pleasing corrosion. So something that removes one corrosion is likely to remove the toning as well.
Rest in Peace

Conder101 has said it like it is.
Unfortunately, a numismatic dichotomy.
Some pictures may help us in how to advise you further.
