<p>[QUOTE="TomCorona, post: 680009, member: 17621"]Heated hydrogen peroxide in small quantities, like a shot glass. Soak as repeatedly as needed. You'll see the verdigris disappear little by little. You won't get any support for this idea from anybody in here but I've found that it works well on copper. I haven't tried it on anything but copper but it does get the surface verdigris off very well. It the verdigris it all the way through the coin, you'll find out exactly what spots are all the way through and which are only surface rather quickly. Try it on lesser coins first if you're skeptical. Lighter fluid works as well but you don't have to watch peroxide as closely and over-soaking won't hurt it much. I can't say the same for L.F as far as over soaking but it does indeed work very well it you've got the time to play.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
