Picked this up for $4. Reverse has some specks of verdigris. This will be a project coin for a verdicare treatment. Thoughts on grade and problems? Thanks!

EF-45 sharpness, but very concerned reverse will not look natural after treatment for ED, so I'll say "details" in all likelihood.

EF-45 , but I don't think Verdi-Care will get rid of those black spots under the green. But what do you have to lose .
Please show us pics after conservation .

This is after the reverse spent about 10 hours with verdicare slathered on top of it in an airtight container. I don't see much difference. Thoughts?
