[QUOTE="Clavdivs, post: 3865264, member: 93702"]Happens all the time.. patience is a virtue...but it's hard (thus a virtue)! Do you plan on selling this coin or do you love it and want to keep it in your collection for life? I have a coin with terrible BD, I had to strip it down to save it or it would be lost forever. I saved it and I was so glad.. I love the coin and will never sell it. It's nothing fancy - but it's history. I added some Jax (fake patina) to make it look nice and it will sit in my collection until I go. Most here will not agree with my decision but I am very happy with the coin and I do not at all regret the decision (which can be easily reversed with a quick dip, of course). Would obviously not want to deceive anyone so this information is included with my coin's documentation. Here is the coin currently.. undergoing it's second bout of Bronze Disease. The first infection cause the frontal lobotomy and pitting.. now I am just dealing with some surface infection (I hope). The Jax really made the coin look quite nice with the dark background and amber highlights... but the struggle continues to save this historical coin.
