<p>[QUOTE="Dynoking, post: 3265136, member: 81795"]The 1974 can serve as a lesson in coin conservation. The distilled water removed the crud that surrounded the date, device and lettering. The untoned surface that was hidden under the crud is exposed. Now the coin appears cleaned. The lesson here is often times circulated coins are not good candidates for conservation. The uneven color may clear up with time as the coin tones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
