Hello everyone. What can I do to stop this from deteriorating more?   |

There's nothing you can do - this coin is a cull, badly corroded, and will never be worth more than 25 cents if that.  |

Nice find  Probably if you keep it dry it won't corrode any more |

Soak in Acetone then soak in some kind of oil. Tr to find an oil that is not corrosive though. Naturally spraying it with a clear Paint of some kind sure wouldn't hurt either.

If you found them then you should like them. Finds are always fun to remember. |

Give it a proper burial !
No hope for that coin, it is dead .
Take 20 bucks and buy a decent coin.
That will get you a pleasing EF coin .

Cover it with vaseline, and wipe off. That'll make it anaerobic
