<p>[QUOTE=&quot;buddy16cat, post: 1567980, member: 37356&quot;]I actually contacted BadThad about this and he said something about soaking it in distilled water to start.&nbsp; The seller didn&#039;t know much about coins and I contacted him about doing this, taping coins to something.&nbsp; I actually got this for $11 along with a low grade common v nickel, I just used acetone on that.&nbsp; It was listed as an &quot;1887 Liberty Cent&quot; in the V Nickel section along with the v nickel.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t return it because I could get more for it if I resell it myself and re-list it properly..&nbsp; I am thinking I may just list and note that it had been taped to something and I would suggest soaking it in distilled water to remove any tape residue.&nbsp; Of course there was no way to know the seller would have done this.&nbsp; How about alcohol and distilled water will that help?&nbsp; That is what I usually use on wheat cents and have used this on another large cent that was previously cleaned.&nbsp; That coin is turning brown again.&nbsp; When I got it, it was orange.&nbsp; I emailed the seller and I was right, they didn&#039;t know not to do this.&nbsp; Of course if they knew what they were doing, they wouldn&#039;t have listed it as an 1834 Matron Head / Coronet Large Cent and not a &quot;1884 Liberty Cent&quot; in the V Nickel Section with a coin worth a buck.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F181002445174%3FssPageName%3DSTRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT%26_trksid%3Dp3984.m1497.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F181002445174%3FssPageName%3DSTRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT%26_trksid%3Dp3984.m1497.l2649" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/MIXED-LOT-1884-LIBERTY-HEAD-ONE-CENT-1905-LIBERTY-HEAD-NICKEL-NR-NO-RESERVE-/181002445174?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;nma=true&amp;si=m2%2F%2BsGS0Fu9JQ8EZmsV5nCGcmmQ%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
