<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Steamandlight, post: 2468392, member: 56876&quot;]Is there ANY right way to clean corrosion off a silver dime? I have a seated liberty.

I scratched at the rust-like corrosion built up on the side and edge of it. It chipped off, and under where it was, the coin is silver colored and intact. But my nail put a small scratch on it. I KNEW better, but I did it anyways :/ Just a stupid move.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is corrosion-looking build up across the coin surface, though, and acetone and water aren&#039;t really touching it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Is there *anything* acceptable to do to clean/conserve/save this coin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
