to bad this cheap camera do not do my coin pics justice,, thoughts on this 20 cent piece from newfoundland 1894, other then the dirty look the braid and hair has great detail. over all great great detail 1959 canada large cent gone green,, but close up view everything looks good detail, only the cheap camera cant show anything, is there a place to clean it or identify the type
The '94 20 cent: EF The '59 Large Cent: Copper turns green once left in the sun too long. There really are no ways to clean copper that turned green without damaging it. Take the Statue of Liberty for instance. They never cleaned it:
