<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dynoking, post: 8340412, member: 81795&quot;]Start with an over night soak in acetone. Then roll a qtip soaked with acetone across the surfaces changing out the qtips as they get dirty. After the qtips stay clean, examine the surfaces. If more gunk is still present re-soak and re-roll the coin. When all the gunk is off use verti-care (not &quot;mysterious verdigris&quot;) following the directions. Verti-care can be purchased from Wizard Coin Supply.</p><p>Note;</p><p>Your coin seems to have an excessive build up of gunk, tarnish, and verdigris. Complete removal may not be possible or may leave the coin with an un-natural or un-even surface color. Knowing when to stop is a very important step in the conservation of a coin. </p><p>Like you stated this coin is already damaged making it a good practice coin but an even better practice coin would be a low/no value LWC/LMC with same or similar level of buildup. Please keep us posted with pictures of your progress and of course any further questions.</p><p>Happy coin conserving,</p><p>Richard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
