<p>[QUOTE="bugo, post: 1788812, member: 53226"]Yes, I know you're never supposed to clean a coin. I have a 1964 half. The obverse is in great condition, but the bottom of the coin is covered in this black mildew gunk. Yes, I know you're never supposed to clean a coin. If it were patina, I wouldn't care because that adds to the look of the coin, but this is just nasty mildew as the coin was underneath some built in drawers in the end of the hall in our old house for over 40 years. If it's impossible to get off, I'll accept it, but if I can get this gunk off it would be great. Yes, I know you're never supposed to clean a coin. I don't want to damage the coin but I'd like to have this nastiness removed if at all possible. Yes, I know you're never supposed to clean a coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
