I certainly will. I will be taking new photos this evening and posting a little later. I understand the value is greatly impaired but while it's disappointing it matters not to me. It sits proudly in my collection..

ok folks here are the results. After a day of using verdi-care to see if I could kill off the verdigris and hopefully improve the coin a little here she is...

A-Shame-What-Verdigris-Can-Do-To-A-Coin...

Not sure it's improved any further than the original attempt but I don't believe the verdigris will eat any more...
Rest in Peace
