<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jessash1976, post: 665699, member: 17086&quot;]Yes, if you send it to sayPCGS or NGC, they would probably just send it back because they would suspect a &quot;cleaning&quot; job as well. If you suspect it is cleaned and want to &quot;old&quot; it up I would suggest an alternative that has worked recently for me.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &quot;Oh well! We all have learned from our novice coin collecting mistakes! You might try soaking it in Virgin Olive Oil for a few weeks and use a green Rose Thorn to see if the remaing corrosion will come off. Also, the Virgin Olive Oil might just tone down that cleaned look somewhat! After that, dip it into some warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, pat dry in a soft towel then set on a window sill for awhile...making sure to check on it at least once a week and see how it comes out. In any event, with that amount of Die Clashing, the coin is still worth a fairly nice premium even it was cleaned!&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Ignoring all the other points in between, soak it in the oil, then wash it. I set mine in the window sill for a week and half and was ver happy with the results. I live in Michigan, so the humidity right now was the perfect environment to &quot;old&quot; it back up<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
