<p>[QUOTE="Gil-galad, post: 1900382, member: 44154"]I think dry cleaning would be better to the high points of the lettering and on the obverse. That may bring out the details better. I would not soak the coin in any type of liquid. The coin has a desert patina which should be preserved. You can dry clean a coin by using toothpicks and by using soft brushes, but I don't think I would brush this one, just use toothpicks and go in very small circular motions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
