Here's my last subject with over half of the coin that's covered with verdigris, how should I handle it? Soak only the problem area with classic coin conditioner which I get next week, or just dip the whole coin into the solution? I also order coinserv to test on few other ones.

See my comment re subject 2.
This coin may be worth experimenting on, but the judgement and risk is up to you.

This is a mixture of light to moderate verdigris. There is no coin product currently on the market that can remove it, especially without damaging the coin. The products you ordered are oil/solvent based. Verdigris is INSOLUBLE in purely organic solvents. These products will simply coat the verdigris.
