<p>[QUOTE="ancient times, post: 3915503, member: 107246"]my late father in law was a chemist assistant, he told me a mixture to get rid of bronze disease on coins and so far I have had pretty good results. you take sulfur powder and Vaseline and make a paste, take a Q tip and apply to infected area, let set 4-6 hours and take clean cloth and wipe away, repeat if necessary. once the bronze disease is gone soak coin in <b><i>trisodium phosphate for an hour or 2 then rinse in distilled water.</i></b></p><p><b><i>dry and or put a protecting coating on coin (I use renaissance wax) sometimes the coin will have a pit or be smooth where the disease was. if paste comes in contact with copper it will darken the coin.
