GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 01/08/2019 08:16 am I cherrypicked this 1967 DDO Kennedy a bit ago and was planning on reselling it, problem being the tarnish is hideous. Is there a way to mitigate it with a dip or other method? Thanks, GC Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 01/08/2019 08:46 am I agree that the patina is very grotty. Giving it a dip won't detract from the value much, not worth much to begin with, but it may make it easier to sell, perhaps at very slightly less price. Report this Post to the Staff

USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 01/08/2019 1:26 pm Can we see it? Also, that tarnish looks like it's baked into the coin. I wouldn't dip it yet. Give it a good acetone bath first and "LIGHTLY" use an acetone "soaked" Qtip on the surface. See if improves a little first. Edited by USSID18 01/08/2019 1:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
