gxseries Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 I've been really quiet as there has been a fair amount of stuff going on in life. Meanwhile I have been preserving coins in my collection. First up is the Sadagura coinage. Thankfully I don't have a hoard of them unlike the other collections that I have. One step at a time I guess. Most of the coins that went through the preservation process turned out to be nicer than they were originally. I documented the before and after. Best coin that turned out is the 1771 para - 3 dengi. Really happy with this. The rest of the coins can be seen here. http://gxseries.com/numis/preservation/sadagura/preservation_sadagura.htm Hope you enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Many thanks for your kind comments squirrel and alexbq2. Alex - I've been using Verdicare. More information can be seen here. http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/products/verdi-care.html The typical result PDF may be a good starter to show what results you may get. I have been getting similar results. I've been experimenting them with lower grade coins before I started trying out with Verdicare. So far, it has been positive. Only time can tell if the patina remains to be the same for the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
