Coin Cleaning

Recommended Posts

Do not have a great deal of knowledge about coin collecting. But I have some coins like this, which have a brown sticky substance on the Obverse and Reverse.

I would imagine they would best sold as junk/scrap silver. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

William

looks like sellotape residue to me - a dunk in acetone might shift it

I second that. The coin itself does however look to be a scrapper even if the reverse not shown..

Agreed

Even gunk free the condition points to scrap.
