<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Boss, post: 519774, member: 15110&quot;]Here it goes. Cracked this AU-50 out a NGC holder (I have a way better AU 58) because the gunk was driving me crazy. Bought a long time ago, and was annoyed with the coin, so it didn&#039;t bother me to crack it out. Soaked in mineral oil about two weeks and used fresh rose thorns to remove gunk. Must get new rose thorn if tips is not surper sharp- having a dull end causes you to not be able to get into the crevices on the lettering or wheat lines and you will tend to push harder and could scratch the coin. Worked two to three seperate times on the coin. Put the coins in an Intercept holder with a airtight cutout so the coin doesn&#039;t fall down when you apply pressure to the coin (fills the ring when you buy bulk airtites from JP&#039;s. They come in a batch of 100 loose airtights). Only try on low value wheats (like maybe 20-50 of them before you try on high value coin). I have done everything backwards and tried on high value coins first:headbang::headbang:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I will post with a second post the post rose thorn cleaning.&nbsp; Please don&#039;t post til I finish[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
