AU-50, agree that this is a good candidate for VerdiCare.

AU, details, Environmental Damage.

On the reverse, it appears that the verdigris had been sufficient to pit the surfaces. Even with Verdicare, it is doubtful that this will clean up too much.

Still not terrible, by any means.

Thanks all for the replies, I'll probably give that verdicare stuff a shot. Never used it before, do I just dab the coin with the stuff and let it sit a minute?

Johnathan , soak it in 100% acetone then buy a conservation product called Verdi-Care and apply it as directed .If no directions comes with the bottle then PM member ''Badthad'' and ask him if he can send you the directions on how to use it . He is the maker of the product .
