<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kentucky, post: 1673339, member: 33176&quot;]OK, not an expert on this, but I am a chemist.&nbsp; Verdigris is evidence of a chemical reaction which will continue if more reactants are present.&nbsp; Reactants include moisture and substances that can be in the air.&nbsp; So if you protect it from moisture (easy enough with dessicant packs) and air (moderately impossible) you will stop any further degradation.&nbsp; Now, you can clean up the verdigris that is present and protect it from further damage.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if he would mind, but you could contact one of our members called BadThad who makes a product called VerdiCare which I use and have faith in.&nbsp; Either contact Thad or read some about VerdiCare (Google it) to get more information or at least visit a coin shop and get a plastic holder to put it in to protect it from mechanical (and a lot of further chemical) harm.&nbsp; Beautiful coin and great family momento, enjoy it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
