coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/05/2009 11:53 pm A very soft bristled toothbrush and a liberal application of Goo-Gone...perhaps a 5 minute soak wouldn't hurt at all. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/06/2009 08:27 am Great find .I noticed that after it was cleaned it looks all shiny and silvery,is there something else that could have cleaned it besides Goo-Gone that would have left it looking natural?Should it be re-toned with liquid darkener?

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/06/2009 09:01 am I think you're seeing different exposures or different contrast controls in the camera or editing software. Goo-Gone does not change the color of circulated copper cents. I have used it for years and have never had a problem with it. And now I am relatively certain - you have 1946S-1OM-001..arguably the most difficult OMM to find in the Lincoln Cent series. Report this Post to the Staff
meckl9 Valued Member United States 326 Posts	Posted 03/07/2009 08:52 am That is a very neat Lincoln. Gives me some incentive to take a look through mine! I've never looked for any errors before, just dates. Sounds like yours is very elusive! Report this Post to the Staff
