<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2481880, member: 1892&quot;]Here are the reasons why your coin was a better candidate for conservation than the OP&#039;s:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) Green. Whether or not you actually do something to a coin, green color must be contemplated for action whenever you see it. </p><p><br /></p><p>2) Smaller areas of spot coverage, meaning complete removal would show smaller &quot;new&quot; surfaces.</p><p><br /></p><p>3) Far less &quot;patina&quot; than the IHC. The OP coin has a lot of stuff all over it, and only a very small percentage of the surface showing anything like original color. Your coin is quite the opposite, with very little buildup obscuring the original copper color.</p><p><br /></p><p>And you demonstrated admirable restraint by not working on the coin until all the spots were completely removed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
