<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 590506, member: 15199&quot;]Search back for my thread where I used it on a large cent. The verdigris here appears to be &quot;deep pitted&quot;, so it will be rather difficult to remove it all, and there will be pits left where it has. You should plan on this occurring so you can make the determination. BadThad has a thread some place where he talks about selective use of Verdigone ( using it only in certain areas an not just dunking it). I would think about using that method near the rims and then a short dunk of the whole coin to reduce the pitted areas a&nbsp; little with out changing the color of the patina ( watch it carefully and often). For me this would leave a little green in the pited areas which I think would be acceptable to me. A rinse with water and then acetone and in a stable holder should keep it that way. I don&#039;t think it is possible to remove all of the green without changing the color noticeably, but it can be conserved for the future. IMHO.</p><p>Verdigone is safe when used as directed and minimally.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
