<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 24666921, member: 33176"]Since this is "ancient" and you are not intending for it to be anything numismatic, using Brasso and Renwax seems good, you could also use eZest and I have experimented with using linseed oil and it seems to work for a coating also. The main caveat here would be to rinse off/neutralize the Brasso or eZest before sealing the coin. LOTS of water and a soap/detergent would not be amiss as long as you thoroughly RINSE it. Let us see how it looks when you finish...PS take it out of the bezel first. If the bezel doesn't come off, rinse becomes more important.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
